Shepards Pie (Not a formal recipe, just my mom's best guess at the measurements)

Saute beef and veggies (not corn) in a frying pan, drain fat if any.
Add bullion cubes and 1 cup of water, thicken with corn starch or flour. I usuallly add Gravy Master for color but its not necessary.
Pam Spray a 9x12 pan, pat beef/vegetable mixture into the bottom of the pan.
Sprinkle frozen corn over the beef layer.
Mix chives into the mashed potatos, pat on top of the corn.
Melt 2 Tablespoons butter/margarine, poor over the top of the potatos.
Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and paprika.
Bake 45 min in a 350 degree oven, or until browned and bubbly.
Allow to cool for 10 minutes or so (to solidify a bit) then serve and ENJOY!

And here is Ziggy's favorite chili recipe. It's AWESOME with venison, but of course we don't that very often. Its also pretty darn good with beef

Bower's Hunter's Chili

Prep Time: 45 mins

Cook Time: 30 mins

Directions:

Panfry the steak or stew meat in a bit of olive oil. Splash on a little soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder and Grill Mates Montreal seasoning (excellent)on the meat. Then cut up into 1/2 bite size.
Brown your ground meat in a pan and drain any grease (There will be very little with venison).
At the same time, in a large pot, put the beans (draining them prior to adding), tomatoes, con carne, chili powder, spaghetti sauce, hot sauce, garlic powder, splash of Tabasco (to taste), pepper, etc. Let this heat on medium-low while browning & seasoning the meat.
Add both the browned ground meat and cut up steak pieces into the large pot of beans. Let it simmer for about 1/2 of an hour or more. Stir occasionally so as not to scorch the chili at the bottom of the pan.
Serve with grated cheese (the pre-grated Mexican variety in a bag works well) and corn bread is a nice compliment.
