Ingredients List
Important Notes
Ground venison (deer burger) is very lean, so adding oats, egg, and tomato sauce helps keep it incredibly moist.
Sourdough or seasoned croutons can be processed into homemade breadcrumbs for extra flavor.
The bell pepper rehydration liquid is packed with flavor; use a splash of it in the meat mixture instead of throwing it away.
Frying the cabbage and potatoes in a combination of lard and bacon grease delivers authentic, rich Southern flavor.
