Hey Tater-way to go on the moose.

Moose steak is great on its own, especially on the grill, but it also goes very well with McCormicks mesquite marinade, a dry powder marinate in an envelope that you can get in most grocery stores.

Also, below is a very time tested stew recipe, I probably go heavier on the meat than the recipe says as I just never weigh the meat.  Congrats again and get eatin ' !

Bear or Moose Mushroom Barley Stew

1 1/2 – 3lbs bear or moose stew meat
2 T flour
4 tablespoon olive oil
Salt & pepper
1 cup hot water
1 cup red wine (you can substitute 1 cup beef broth + 2 T red wine vinegar)
2 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 cup carrots, sliced (about 3 carrots)
4-5 cloves garlic, minced
6-8 cups hot beef broth
6oz can tomato paste
16oz can stewed tomatoes w/juice
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 bay leaf
1/4 cup lentils (dry)
1/2 cup barley (dry)
8oz can sliced mushrooms

Cut meat into eating-sized pieces, season with salt and pepper.
Heat 2 T olive oil in 5 qt. stockpot. Add meat and brown, then add flour and mix around.
Slowly pour in hot water, 2 cups of hot broth and 1 cup of wine.
In a saute' pan, heat 2 T olive oil, add onions & cook until carmelized, browned & tender
Stir garlic into onion mixture and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds
Mix onion/garlic into meat mixture and simmer (covered) for approximately 1 hour.

Pour in the rest of the beef broth, add tomato paste, stewed tomatoes w/juice, thyme, basil, bay leaf, and simmer (covered) for 20-30 minutes.

In a saute' pan melt butter, add mushrooms, sauté until tender.

Add mushrooms, barley, and lentils to the rest and simmer for approximately 40 minutes.

Note:  you may need to add more or less liquid depending on how thick you like your
stew.  The lentils and barely will soak up a lot of liquid so keep an eye on your
soup to make sure you don't run out of broth.

They were on this site and got pulled because of the size.   If you search a few other sites (***********, droptine, etc.) the pics are still up.  I'll emial you some on Monday.  The bow shot perfect!  Got a complete pass through and stuck a 1/2 " into a spruce tree.

Take care.
