3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 yellow onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 jalapeno pepper, diced
1 pound ground venison
1 pinch ground black pepper, or to taste
1 pinch ground cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 pinch grill seasoning (such as Montreal Steak Seasoning®), or to taste
1 pinch garlic salt, or to taste
1 dash Worcestershire sauce
1 vine-ripened tomato, diced

Steps:

Heat 1 1/2 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, red bell pepper, and jalapeno; cook and stir until softened, 5 to 8 minutes.
Heat remaining 1 1/2 tablespoon oil in another skillet over medium heat. Add venison; cook and stir until lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in black pepper, cayenne pepper, grill seasoning, garlic salt, and Worcestershire sauce; cook until venison is browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
Combine tomato, barbeque sauce, ketchup, tomato paste, and hot sauce in a food processor; pulse until sauce is combined.
