preparation

First start with the caramel game jus (see recipe here) . Rub the venison loin (room temperature) with medium-hot mustard and sprinkle with ground pepper to taste.

Set the grill to 220 °C indirect heat and place the venison loin on the grill. After exactly 25 minutes, remove the loin from the grill, place it on a tray or plate, cover with a tea towel and let it rest for a good 10 minutes.

Grill the vegetables on the plancha in butter until golden brown and leave them a little crispy. Place the rosemary sprig on the vegetables and turn them over and over to flavor them. Deglaze with a good dash of teriyaki, season with salt and pepper and grate a touch of nutmeg over the top.

For the wild BBQ pears, peel the fruit and leave it whole. Cut the bottoms of the pears off, not too close, and carefully scoop out the cores with a teaspoon.
Place the pears upside down in small cups, they should be slightly raised on the edge of the cup up to the middle. Fill each pear with 1 teaspoon of cranberries and place the base back on top. For each pear, place a cross with 2 slices of bacon on the worktop and carefully place the pear on top with the base facing down in the middle. Spread the bacon slices up along the fruit and then wrap the remaining 3 slices around the pear.

Place the coated pears in the indirect grill zone at 140 °C and cook for 20 minutes. Then spread the glaze on the bacon slices and caramelize for another 20 minutes.
To serve, arrange two slices of venison loin on each plate with vegetables, a BBQ pear and a few splashes of caramel sauce and sprinkle the meat with Maldon salt .

Katharina's BBQ tip: "The venison loin grilled in this way is a perfect roast beef: beautifully pink throughout and very juicy. The meat is also good for cold cutting into thin slices. The BBQ pears are a perfect addition to autumn and winter barbecue cuisine. A play with aromas and feel that is based on traditions and is reinterpreted by me."
