Christmas Cooking has Commenced!

Snacking on smoked Alaskan silver salmon:

Relying a bit on Eileen Clarke's wonderful "Slice of the Wild" cookbook:

Elk roast - ready for prep!

Slits filled with sliced garlic cloves. Yet to come; slathering the roast in olive oil, then seasoning with black pepper, minced garlic and a tiny bit of salt.

Shopping for the elk roast:

Shopping for the salmon:

Merry Christmas All!

325 for about an hour and ten. It turned out "rare" and good. The veggies were good, but could have used another 10 min. All in all, I'd rather under-cook a bit instead of over-cooking.

Wife got an end piece that was more "medium-rare" while my son and I enjoyed the less-done "rare" pieces.

We all enjoyed.
