Venison Meatballs

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Step 2

Place bread cubes and milk into a separate dish and mix with your fingers to ensure bread is completely saturated with the milk. Let soak for 10 minutes.

Step 3

While bread is soaking gently crumble venison into a large bowl.

Step 4

In a separate dish add remaining ingredients and mix to combine.

Step 5

When bread is done soaking, remove any bits that are still firm, and work with your fingers to break down the remaining soaked bread. Add this to the dish with the seasonings and mix together, then add everything to the dish with the venison and gently mix to fully incorporate all of the ingredients.

Step 6

Scooping out 2 tablespoons of meat at a time, gently form into meatballs by rolling venison mixture between your hands. Set meatballs on a large rimmed baking sheet and place in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked all of the ways through.

Step 7

Optional: When meatballs are almost done cooking you can set the broiler to high if you wish to sear a crust onto the top of the meatballs for added texture.
