Grilled Venison Bites (deer Balls) (cajun)

Total Time: 35 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• 1 lb venison
• 1 lb bacon
• 16 ounces italian dressing
• 1 -2 tablespoon tony chachere's seasoning

Recipe

• 1 cut venison into bite size bits.
• 2 cut bacon into 3-4 inch pieces. you may even want to cut the bacon strips in half, length-wise first, depending on the width of the bacon.
• 3 wrap each chunk of meat with a piece of bacon, using a tooth pick to hold in place.
• 4 place wrapped venison in a plastic bag and cover with dressing. marinate over night.
• 5 place marinated deer balls on plate and sprinkle with seasoning.
• 6 grill until bacon is crisp, turning often. i found the easiest way is to use a fish basket, that way you can turn them all over at once. another way is to use a skewer. no mater what method you use, watch for flare ups, since the oil in the italian dressing will cause quite a blaze if you don't keep an eye on it. i walked away one time to get a beer and when i came back my balls were burnt to a crisp.
