Directions

Prepare BamBiTo Filler:

In a large skillet, brown the wild beasts (buffalo and sausage) in olive oil. Add 2 cups of the onions and 1/4 cup of the garlic, and cook over medium heat until meat is thoroughly cooked. Drain fat and set aside.

In a separate pot, boil the venison in water with salt, pepper, medium onion, ginger, and celery until it is tender and flakes easily, about 2 hours. Remove cooked venison from pot and place on chopping block. With 2 forks, pull the meat apart.

Put the meat, remaining onion and garlic, plus the mushrooms, green peppers, jalapenos, and habaneros into a large stock pot. Add cilantro, chili powder, cumin, Dijon mustard, salt, sugar, green chiles, salsa, lime juice, tomato paste, and tomato sauce. Add the beer to the stockpot and mix thoroughly. Bring to a boil. Once the stockpot reaches a boil, reduce heat ,and let the contents simmer for 2 to 3 hours.

Spoon a heaping ladle of pulled BamBiTo into the center of a large tortilla. Fold the ends of the tortilla toward the center crossing one over the other. Lay the BamBiTo in the center of a plate seam side down. Ladle SaBooGoo over the top. Garnish with a dab of sour cream and cilantro.

SaBooGoo:

  • 4 cups diced processed cheese spread
  • 1 (10-ounce) can cream of chicken coup
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped green onions
  • 1 (4-ounce) can diced green chiles, drained
  • 1 cup salsa, store bought or home made
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

In a medium pot combine cheese, soup, and sour cream over medium heat. Stir constantly while the mixture combines. After the mixture combines, reduce heat to low and add the remaining ingredients. Stir until well combined. Do not over heat.

    It takes awhile, but well worth it! My ex-wife, who hates deer meat loved it. Of course she didn't know it was in there! I made it to the "T". It come out perfect.

    I have never cooked venison before and I definitely wanted something flavorful. This was the ticket for sure.
    I only used the venison portion of the recipe and didn't make the saboogoo. I omitted some of the ingredients (the habanero and jalapeno peppers because I wanted my kids to try it, so it lacked the heat from those peppers. Because of that, it ended up tasting a little more like barbeque. Also, I used dry ground ginger and cut the amount in half.
    Next time, I will add the jalapenos for sure (don't know about the habanero, though.
    Not only was this really good the first time, I had leftovers a few days later and it tasted even better.
