Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 1 pound venison liver (sliced)
  • 3 cups water (boiling)
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup dry red wine (optional, we didnt use this)
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 tablespoons bacon fat
  • 2 cups sliced wild (12 ounces) onions (I used onions and green onions )
  • 1 can (10 3/4 ounces) mushroom soup
  • 1 cup water (rinse the can)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Trim and wash the liver and slice into 1/4" slices.

  • Step 2: Pour half of the boiling water over the slices, drain and pat dry. Repeat.

  • Step 3: On a platter, mix the flour and pepper.

  • Step 4: Dredge the liver in the flour mixture.

  • Step 5: Over high heat, heat the bacon fat until blue smoke appears. Add the liver and saute on both sides until lightly browned. Remove the liver with a slotted spoon and set aside.

  • Step 6: Add the thinly sliced onions and cook until golden brown. Be careful not to burn the onions.

  • Step 7: Lower the heat, add the mushroom soup, one can of warm water and the liver.

  • Step 8: Cover and cook on low for 1 1/2 hours, making sure that the pan does not cook dry (I had to add more water, just sayin).

  • Step 9: Add 1/2 c. wine just before the liver is ready.

  • Step 10: Served with mashed potatoes and melted bacon grease as gravy.
