Deer season has started here. There are many recipes for deer meat. This one ids from "Old-Fashioned Celebrations Recipes and Traditions from Conner Prairie Museum", Bear Wallow Books.

Venison Steaks

"Cut thin steaks from the haunch, season them with salt, pepper and sifted sage, dust a little flour over them and fry them a light brown in lard. When they are done, transfer them to a warm covered dish. To make gravy: pour into the remainder a few spoonful of boiling water , add two minced onions, a spoonful of brown flour, one of butter, and 1 1/2 cups of sweet cream; stir it till it raises the boil, and then pour the gravy over the steaks."

I love venison, but my source for some has dried up, so no more yummy steaks, boohoo!

When my father-in-law was alive, he would make the best venison steaks. He loved to hunt and always had lots of deer meat in his freezer.
