Dinner Club Royale'S Gin-Marinated Venison Steaks

1. 1

   In a shallow dish big enough to hold all the venison in a single layer, whisk together the olive oil, garlic, marmalade, bay leaves, salt and pepper. Slowly add the gin, whisking constantly to combine.

2. 2

   Pat the steaks dry and add them to the dish with the marinade. Turn to coat, rubbing the marinade into the steaks a little as you do. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2-8 hours.

3. 3

   30 minutes before you want to eat, fire up the grill. You want a nice sear, so try to let it preheat for 15-20 minutes over high heat. Once the grill is hot, remove steaks from marinade and place on grill rack. Turn the heat down to medium-high and cook for 8 minutes, turning the steaks over after 4 minutes. This will get you a nice medium rare steak - if you like it a little more done cook for an additional 1-2 minutes per side.

4. 4

   Remove the steaks from the grill and let rest for 10 minutes on a plate, then slice them against the grain and finish with a flourish of flakey salt.
