Confit is a French term for the art of preserving meat in fat or rendered oil. The French didn’t invent the method, but they were probably the first to put a word to it. Jars of venison chunks preserved this way can be stored in the refrigerator for a quick dish when needed. A little prep work makes cooking venison confit quick, easy and delicious.
Use duck fat from a meat market or use fat from wild ducks you’ve killed, but keep in mind that domesticated ducks and geese are much fatter than flyway birds. The used duck fat can be retained for future venison confit.
4 lbs venison cubed 1/3 cup sea salt (or kosher) 1/2 tsp ground cumin 1/2 tsp ground coriander 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon 1/2 tsp ground allspice 1/2 tsp ground ginger 1/4 tsp fresh ground nutmeg 1/8 tsp ground cloves 1/4 tsp crumbled thyme 1 bay leaf crumbled 36 to 40 garlic cloves 8 cups rendered duck fat
Mix spices and sprinkle over all sides of the meat. Place in a glass dish and cover with the garlic. Cover the dish and refrigerate for 36 hours. Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. Drain the liquid from the marinated meat. Pat the meat, garlic and dish dry. Place meat and garlic back in the dish and cover with the rendered duck fat.
Bake for 2 to 2 1/2 hours. The garlic will be a golden color. Using tongs, place meat into clean, sterile canning jars. Don’t fill the jars to the top, leave about 2 inches head room. Add hot filtered duck fat to the jars, covering the meat with at least 1 inch of fat. Only the meat is packed in the jars, the garlic can be saved for use in a soup. Let cool, then seal jars and store in the refrigerator. The venison confit will keep up to six months in the refrigerator.
