How To Make Deer Hash

I came from a family of hunters and grew up eating venison.  I got this recipe from my mom.  I learned it from years and years of watching her make it.  It is super simple, though.

Ingredients:
venison (I use one back strap - tenderloin)
1 small onion
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper

Directions:
Cut the tenderloin into several smaller pieces and cover with water in a large pot.  Cook for approximately 45 minutes.  Remove the meat from the liquid and let cool - keeping the liquid on medium heat.

 While the meat is cooling, dice up the onion and place in the liquid.

After the meat has completely cooled (usually about 15 minutes) tear it by hand into smaller pieces.  This takes the longest time.

Place the meat back into the pot and simmer about 15 minutes.

We eat it on top of rice!  I'm sure you could do this with beef tenderloin as well.
