Cook bones in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat 8 minutes or

ingredients; stir well, and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat to medium,
and cook, uncovered, 45 minutes or until stock  is reduced to 1-1/4
cups.  Strain stock through a sieve into a bowl; discard solids. Add
mustard  to stock; stir well, and set aside.  Trim fat from venison.
Sprinkle salt and pepper over venison.  Heat oil in a large nonstick
skillet over medium-high heat. Add  venison, and cook 15 minutes or
until a meat thermometer registers  140 degrees (medium-rare), browning
venison on all sides. Remove  venison from skillet; set aside, and keep
warm.  Wipe drippings from skillet with a paper towel.  Add 1/2 cup gin
to skillet; cook over low heat until warm. Ignite  with a long match.
Add stock to skillet; bring to a boil. Yield: 6  servings (serving

Gerard Van Mourik cooks down  the stock to maximize the flavor and
eliminate the need to add fat to  make a smooth sauce. Cut venison into
1/8-inch-thick slices, and  arrange slices on top of sauce. To serve,
spoon sauce on individual  plates. Recipe by: Cooking Light, Jan/Feb
