Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 small onion, minced
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 cup ketchup
• 2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
• 4 (4 ounce) venison steaks
• 0.25 cup butter

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Step 2

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in ketchup, lemon juice, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and yellow mustard until completely warmed.

Step 3

Heat a separate skillet over medium-high heat. Season steaks with salt and black pepper; cook in the skillet until browned on each side, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer steaks to a 9x13-inch baking dish; pour ketchup mixture over steaks.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until steaks are cooked through and no longer pink in centers, about 1 hour.

Step 5

Transfer steaks to a platter, shaking off any excess sauce back into the baking dish. Whisk water and cornstarch together in a small bowl until smooth; stir into hot sauce remaining in the baking dish until barbecue sauce begins to thicken. Pour sauce over steaks.
