Grandma's Deer Hash Recipe

I caught this in the comments on another post....
Need to get it on the main page admin....

FROM JUSTINA:
Cindy—Making Kolaces to sell in Connies bakery is a truly inspired idea. I think its awesome that shes doing so well. Our family rocks...
Anyway, here's how to make deer hash like Grandma Mudd...
My mom knows it best (you can verify it with her), but I think this is pretty much it...
So you cook the hell out of the meat til its fallingoff the bones (covered, w/ a couple cups of water)...seasoned with s & p, and sage (I add sliced onions and garlic cuz I love em)... Scrape every last morsel of meat off the bones (keeping in mind all the kids in ethiopia)... Discard the BARE bones... Add to the meat and juices a cup (or two) of water, in which you will dissolve a tbsp (or two) of flour. Turn the heat down, so you don't burn the gravy—it needs to simmer to thicken. Stir it good to make sure there are no clumps of flour you may have missed in the cup... Cook it longer if you want it thicker and don't be afraid to add more flour or water if it looks like it needs it. When I used to help grandma make the hash, she was never exact with her measurements. I think you should just judge it the best you can—according to how muchmeat there is, how much juice cooked off, how much gravy you want, how thick you want it, etc—and justplay with it... Just remember this is down-homecooking, not a science, just more of a feeling. Thats how grandma did it. Every time was a little different.The only constant was that when she served up on a slice of bread we all scarfed it down. I have made some a couple of times with some of the deer meat my mom brought out here (thank you noble andgenerous hunters) and Sean loved it... up until I told him it was deer meat... ugh. Now he swears that he knew it all along. Yeah right. I still sneak it in,just like grandma used to do with Martin... ;o) He doesn't know the difference. I made some kick ass chili with it too and it was gone before I had achance for left-overs. Anyway, i love ya'll and hope that you whip up some good stuff. Eat some for me. I just love to cook, and sharing recipes—whether family tradition or impromptu experimentation—is what its all about... God bless you all and Dobrunotz!!!
Miles of love,
Justinka & Sean x0x0x0x0x0x0x0x0x0x0.....

p.s. (gotta share a joke my mom told me, that her priest told her)
Priest: Do you know how to make Holy Water?
My mom: ummm... Yeah. You—
Preist: Wrong. You take a pot. Put it on the stove.Fill it with water, and—




BOIL THE HELL OUT OF IT.
