Ingredients You’ll Need

2 venison steaks (about 1 inch thick)
Salt and black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Butter for basting

Instructions to Cook Up a Storm

Start by seasoning those venison steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides. Don’t be shy with the seasoning—it’s key to flavor!
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, fresh rosemary, and balsamic vinegar together to make a flavorful marinade.
Place the steaks in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and let it marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour—or overnight if you want that flavor to really soak in.
Once you’re ready to cook, remove those steaks from the fridge and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps them cook evenly.
Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Add a little bit of butter and let it melt. The sizzle is gonna set the mood, trust me!
Once the skillet is hot, grab your steaks and lay them down carefully. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving them. You want that nice sear!
Flip the steaks and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side. During the last minute of cooking, add more butter to the pan and baste the steaks for extra flavor.
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for about 5 minutes before slicing. This keeps the juices locked in, making each bite tender and juicy.
Slice against the grain, serve with your favorite sides, and watch everyone dive in with delight!

Your taste buds are in for a treat! Enjoy this delicious venison steak recipe with family and friends, and watch it become a new favorite at your gatherings. Happy cooking!
