I like to do venison stuffed grape leaves. If your into that sort of thing. I use venison for alot of different things but use as a lamb substitute when in abundance after hunting season.

You could substitute the ground elk for shredded venison:

Is the venison already cooked and shredded? I really like venison. And per mrslarkin, chili or tacos might be a good call. Myself I'd be tempted to do something insane like venison, kimchi tacos. But I've also braised venison shoulder with grapes in a style I tasted in Assisi. You could substitute prunes for grapes as well.

I think I've had venison once in my life. BUT, how about using it as you would shredded pork or beef, like in a taco, enchilada, chili, or as in a pulled pork sandwich?
