Scottish Venison is delighted to share two wonderful venison recipes to add a new dimension to your Christmas celebrations and festive feasting this year.

Chef and Scottish venison ambassador Tim Maddams has crafted something special – a beautifully herb-crusted venison haunch alongside a rich, warming venison pie. Together, they offer the perfect festive feast —succulent roasted meat paired with slow-cooked tenderness, all complemented by natural gravy and buttery, flaky pastry. And the best part? Eat venison and you’ll not only be enjoying a natural meat that’s not only delicious but sustainable and nature positive too.

Tim Maddams says:

“Obviously, you can do the roast without the pie or indeed the pie without the roast – I just like the idea of putting them together and the pie makes a wonderful visual impact along with the sliced roasted venison that is hard to resist – it’s the one meal of the year where more is always more!”
