When you crack 200# you won't need little blue pills and you won't
run away.

     Title: Moose And Partridgeberry Panini
Categories: Sandwiches, Veniosn, Fruit, cheese
  Servings: 2

      1 pt bottled moose or slow cooked
           braised game or beef
      4 lg slices sourdough
           sharp cheddar cheese,
           sliced
      2 TB partridgeberry (lignonberry)
           preserves or
           red current jelly
    1/4 c  port
           non stick cooking spray

I'm always thinking about how I can take traditional Newfoundland or
New England ingredients and use them in a new and unique way.

If you do not have a panini press these sandwiches can be made in a
skillet just as you would a grilled cheese or even on a cast iron
griddle. If you want the panini effect of the sandwich getting
pressed add a heavy pan to the top of the sandwich to press it a
bit.

To start, place the contents of your bottled moose in a small
skillet (I use a skillet as opposed to a sauce pan as this will help
with the reduction later). Heat the moose and liquor through over a
medium heat. I like to have the moose warm on the sandwich instead
of putting it on there cold. Next, plug in your panini press and let
it get hot. Lay out your four slices of bread and begin to assemble
the sandwiches. Spread 1 Tbsp of the jam on two slices and cover the
other two slices with thinly sliced sharp cheddar cheese. Next
divide the tender moose meat atop the slices with the cheese. There
should be enough moose to sneak a couple pieces into your mouth as a
little snack. Lay the jammed slice of bread onto the moose/cheese
slice and you're all set. Open your panini press and spray both
sides with nonstick spray or oil. Lay on the sandwiches and press
down. Cook according to your machines directions or until browned,
crispy and heated through.

I let the paninis rest for a couple of minutes (they're too hot too
eat) while I make the reduction. Bring the reserved moose liquor to
a boil and add a 1/4 cup of port. Stir together and let reduce until
it becomes syrupy and coats a spoon. Use this reduction to drizzle
around your plated panini for dipping. This sandwich was a huge hit
at home the other night and I'm sure it will be for you and your
friends and family too. Paired with a nice glass of Rodrigues wine
or cold glass of beer and you'll have a great combination. So here
you have it, two of Newfoundland's best ingredients, moose and
partridgeberries together again, just as they are in nature out on
the barrens.
