    I was looking for lamb recipes to adapt to use my venison(as I often do), and along came this limerick. I figured if any recipe was fairly open to interpretation, it would be one like this. I used venison loin roasts. Seared it, then braised it in garlic onion, celery, mushrooms, red wine, a fair bit of cumin, salt and pepper and a small amount of the brown sugar. I cooked them about 3 hours. They were falling apart, they were so tender. I removed them from the pan(used my cast iron for everything), deglazed with a lil beef stock(no more wine for us), added a bit more brown sugar, and reduced it a fair bit while the meat rested. I served it with pan roasted potatoes which I tossed with rough chopped fresh spinach. Excellent way to cook venison, and I'm sure lamb, as well. Thank you, Jeff, for the idea. I added my photo. :)

    I have to admit that I am a little perplexed here, perhaps it's my little pea brain, but the title says it is a haiku, yet appears to be less that a true haiku and more like a limerick. In the interest of preserving the integrity of the art of haiku, perhaps you should edit the title.

    I'm thinking you need to attempt Rummy Bears again, only this time just chug the rum out of the mixture, Mr. Cranky Pants.
