Instructions
- Rough chop shallot and garlic. Saute shallot in small saucepan, until soft. Add garlic to onions in saucepan and saute until they are fragrant and have begun to soften.
- When onions and garlic are soft and fragrant, add red wine and stock. Add whole peppercorns, juniper berry and kosher salt, a few sprigs of fresh thyme, sage and rosemary, blackberry jam and demi glace.
- Cook for 15 minutes, or so until reduced by about 1/2. Strain out solids and discard. Cool before adding to meat.
- Once marinade is cool, marinate for 10 minutes in Foodsaver bag, or marinate for 2 hours, if not using the vacuum.
- Remove loin from marinade and dry very well with paper towel.
- Place the marinade in a small saucepan and heat to boiling. Turn down to a soft boil for about 10 minutes.
- Add oil to cast iron skillet and sear all 4 sides of loin. Meat should be 125-130°F. Then remove meat to a platter and tent with foil. Allow to sit for at least 10 minutes, to let juices redistribute! Do not overcook venison! It will get dry and tough very quickly!

Notes
- Before searing, allow meat to stay out at room temperature for 30-45 minutes.
- Once venison is seared on all sides, check the temperature. It should be between 125-130°F. If meat has not come to temperature, finish in the oven, in cast iron pan until temp is correct.
- Letting me rest for 10 minutes is a crucial step.
- Leftovers will last, refrigerated for about 4 days.
- Leftovers can be frozen, if well packed, for a few months.
