Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 tablespoons sugar-based curing mixture (such as Morton® Quick Cure®)
2 tablespoons brown sugar, or as needed
1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper, or as needed
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon crushed bay leaf
1 teaspoon ground allspice
½ teaspoon garlic powder
5 pounds venison rump roast

Steps:

  • Whisk together curing mixture, brown sugar, pepper, paprika, bay leaf, allspice, and garlic powder in a bowl. Rub mixture over venison roast, and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Place roast in a bowl; refrigerate for 5 days.
  • Remove roast from the refrigerator and rinse thoroughly to remove the curing mixture. Place in a bowl with water to cover, and soak, refrigerated, for 2 hours. Drain.
  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
  • Season roast with additional black pepper and brown sugar, and place in a roasting pan.
  • Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until a meat thermometer inserted near the center reads 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 2 hours.
