"My father took an old german recipe he found in a Taste of Home Magazine and converted it from beef to venison. You can use beef round steak or cubed steak. Venison naysayers loved this and could not believe that it was venison. We have converted many a person. The vinegar from the pickle tenderizes the meat to perfection."
