Russians love Bears and they will eat them also if given a chance….How about this Christmas having Roasted Bear Meat?
Roast Bear recipe…
Ingredients Bear Meat:
1000 g (1 kilo) bear meat cut into 10, 100 gram sections…
10 ea pork belly lard pieces…
1 tbsp butter…
Marinade (see the recipe of Marinade for Bear below…)
How To Do: Wash the meat carefully, lard (larding meat) every slice lengthwise. Place and soak in marinade for 24 hours. Once marinated, put on a oiled baking sheet to oven cook, add by brushing on a little of the leftover marinade, and brush on the melted butter and bake in preheated oven (slow cooking is best), basting with the meat juice regularly, for 3 hours total cooking time…
Bear Marinade: Ingredients to be made the day before, to allow it to mix well…
.5 cup apple juice
.5 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp dried rosemary
1 Bay Leaf
3 tsp garlic powder
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
Use this recipe and also serve Bear Meat with Cheese Pelmeni…
This also makes a great crock-pot cooking dish and or oven baking crocks can be used also. Remember to lard the meat. Bears have virtually no fat in the meat and you need to add that fat to help cooking it. Bear meat is tough, so soak it overnight at least in marinade. By the way, toss a can of beer into the marinade and that will break the meat down better also/faster…
Enjoy….this recipe is really good…
