Years ago a friend made venison tamales and they were great. He's not with us anymore and I would like to get a recipe for them. Any ideas? I don't remember if they were made with ground meat or something else. I realize how difficult it is to shred deer meat. I would think maybe using a food processor.
Any recipes would be greatly appreciated and by many others i am sure.

They are the best, my wife's Mexican, her grandmother always asking me to shoot a deer for her.

I made them with ground venison. It's not easy getting your hands on a venison roast and I'd rather have that with gravy over rice. Treat the same as you would red chile beef.

Have never made venison but regularly make pork/chicken ones using the recipe from Son of The South website. They are great and am sure venison could be substituted for one or both of the meats.

Never thought of it but it sounds great

Need to get some made. Sounds good.
