Elk with Bark bitters
The day before cooking, generously salt the Elk on both sides, cover and refrigerate.
A few hours before cooking, remove the Elk from refrigerator, cover with the Bark Bitters and let the meat come to room temperature
Heat a medium sized Cast Iron Pan over medium heat, swirl in the olive oil and butter and heat till shimmering
Add the Garlic and briefly fry (you are flavoring the oil and butter, careful, don’t let it burn!) remove garlic from oil with a slotted spoon. Alternatively, you can use a good quality garlic powder, sprinkled on the steak before cooking.
Add the steak and pan fry to medium Rare (6 min per side)
Mist with Bark Bitters and garnish with Cinnamon and cedar. Serve with Nipîy – Leaf bitter infused Basmati Rice, Simple green beans and butternut squash.
