Chislic may be prepared with venison, lamb, or beef, but in my opinion, venison works best for this distinctive South Dakotan cuisine. Chislic is made with bite-sized pieces of meat that have been deep-fried and seasoned with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Many restaurants and grills in South Dakota offer Chislic as an appetizer. This dish seems to be made differently everywhere, but I’ve never tried a Chislic that I didn’t like. Except maybe beef Chislic, I mean, I like it, but it doesn’t come close to venison or lamb.
Chislic should be around the size of a quarter and the thickness of your thumb. The finest cuts for venison are backstraps and round roasts since they provide the largest chunks of meat and need the least trimming. It can be served loose or on a stick, much like a lamb.
Any deer camp is guaranteed to love venison Chislic since it’s so easy to make and exceptionally tasty.
Few people outside of South Dakota are familiar with Chislic, which is often fried lamb or venison on a stick. It’s uncommon elsewhere, but in this 40th state of the union, it’s huge. South Dakota’s favorite dish, according to the area’s leading newspaper. The leading magazine in the area named the state’s southeast “Chislic Circle.” Small-town bars and restaurants around Sioux Falls always have the best Chislic.
The Turkic word shashlik or shashlyk, which is derived from the Turkish word for skewered meats, shish kebab, is thought to be the source of the word Chislic. John Hoellwarth, a Crimean immigrant to Hutchinson County, South Dakota, in the 1870s, is said to have brought Chislic to the United States.
In the 1930s, Chislic finally started to gain in popularity in the region. To this day, there is still debate on who first began selling Chislic in Freeman. Lamb Chislic is typically served with soda crackers after being deep-fried till crispy.
Many people recommend washing it down with a cold beer. Today, you may get your Chislic in many variations, such as marinated or with a dipping sauce.
The last Saturday of every July is when Freeman, South Dakota, hosts the South Dakota Chislic Festival.
South Dakotans compete in a judged Chislic contest as part of the Chaslic festival in categories including “Classic Sheep” and “New Age Nosh” in an effort to win bragging rights. A selection of Chislic, meats, sides, sweets, beverages, and craft beers made in South Dakota are available from vendors.

See the recipe card below for full recipe directions with information on ingredient amounts.
Step 1: Slice and cube the steak into bite-sized pieces.
Step 2: Add Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to a mixing bowl. Mix until the meat is thoroughly coated. Give the meat time to marinade for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Step 3: Add oil and heat a large heavy-bottom pot to 375F. Take a chunk of meat and dip it in the heated oil to check the temperature. The oil is hot enough if it immediately begins to sizzle.
Step 4: Add 4-5 pieces of meat at a time to a pot and fry for about 1 minute or until medium-rare. Using a slotted spoon, remove the pieces from the oil and set it on a dish covered with paper towels to absorb any remaining oil. Keep adding the rest of the cubes until all are cooked.
Step 5: Add Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, and thinly sliced green onions as garnish (optional). Serve alongside saltine crackers and dipping sauce (combine all sauce ingredients and mix well).
Step 1: Slice the venison (or lamb) into bite-sized pieces.
Step 2: Add Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to a mixing bowl. Add in the venison bites and mix well until evenly coated. Marinate for 4 hours or overnight for the best result.
Step 3: Set an air fryer to 400°F for 5 minutes to preheat.
Step 4: When it’s ready, add the Chislic cubes to the basket and air fry for 4–5 minutes at 400°F, for medium-rare, or more, depending on how you like your Chislic.
Chislic is a South Dakotan specialty prepared differently in each region of the state from cubed meat (lamb or venison) that is often seasoned and deep-fried. In this recipe, the venison is marinated in Worcestershire sauce before deep-fried.

Scroll to the recipe box for a detailed mango cake recipe with ingredients and measurements. Also, be sure to check the tips for each stake of making the cake at the end of the article.
Step 1: Set the oven to fan-forced 320 F (160°C). Use parchment paper to line the bottom of a 6-inch cake pan.
Step 2: Mix the egg yolks, vegetable oil, milk, and cornstarch in a medium bowl. Add the flour and salt, then whisk just until incorporated.
Step 3: Using a stand mixer bowl with a whisk attachment, beat the sugar and egg whites until they form stiff peaks.
Step 4: Fold the meringue into the mixture of egg yolks in three portions, trying not to collapse the bubbles. Fill the cake pan with the cake batter. Place the cake pan in a bigger baking pan filled with 1/2 inch of boiling water.
Step 5: Bake the cake for 1 hour. You’ll know it’s done because it should bounce back when you touch it. To cool, use a wire rack. Once the cake is cool, pass a knife around the pan’s edge and turn it over. Wrap in plastic wrap and put in the fridge
Step 1: Cream, vanilla extract, and sugar should all be combined in the bowl of a stand mixer with a whisk attachment. Whisk until medium-stiff peaks form.
Step 2: Refrigerate until you’re ready to assemble the cake.
Step 1: Peel your mangoes and slice each one into 6-8 cubes. Cut the leftover mango into thin pieces.
Step 2: Split the cake into three equal size layers. Put a cake layer on a turntable, then spread a thin coating of cream over the cake. Place the pieces of mango that have been thinly cut on top of the cream, and then cover them with additional cream. Place the second layer of sponge cake on top. Repeat the process, then cover it with the last layer of sponge cake.
Step 3: Spread a thin layer of cream over the surface of the cake using a palette knife, and as you do so, spin the turntable to achieve a smooth finish. To create a border around the edge of the cake using the leftover cream, place it in a piping bag with a star tip attached to it.
Step 3: Mango cubes can be used as decoration; after decorating, chill the cake for a few hours before serving.
If kept in an airtight container, this mango cake can keep for up to three days in the refrigerator.
Absolutely, yes! Feel free to combine your favorite fruits or alter the fruits around to suit your preferences.
Your sponge cake was probably underbaked if it lost too much of its airy texture. There are a few reasons why this may be the case: The cake wasn’t cooked long enough, the water bath had too much water, and the oven temperature was too low.
Fresh and juicy mango and fluffy, cotton-soft sponge cake make up this mango cake, which is then topped with delicate vanilla whipped cream.

When baking soft sponge cakes, using a cake tin without a non-stick coating is crucial! The edges of the cake tin serve as a barrier against which the batter can climb while baking. This guarantees the cake’s lofty sides and sturdy structure. In contrast, a non-stick cake tin’s sides would allow the batter to glide down them.
Cornstarch is a crucial component if you want a soft sponge cake that will stay together. To make a softer sponge cake, we can reduce the quantity of gluten formed during mixing by substituting part of the flour with cornstarch. Because flour tends to make baked goods harder, it’s important to mix the cornstarch and other wet ingredients thoroughly to integrate it before folding in the flour.
Contrary to cornstarch, overmixing flour may make a cake difficult or gummy. This is due to the fact that the more you mix flour, the more likely it is to develop gluten networks. Gluten provides bread its chewy texture and structure, but we don’t want that in a cake. Use a whisk to gently incorporate the flour in after sifting it into the egg yolk mixture until just blended.
The most common method for preparing sponge cakes involves adding the meringue to the mixture of egg yolks and gently folding it in. This approach, in my opinion, raises the risk of undermining. When you undermix a sponge cake, the meringue and egg yolk mix will separate during baking, which is what results in a rubbery egg-like base.
To avoid this, add a third of the meringue and blend thoroughly with the egg yolk mixture. After that, add your meringue to the lighter egg yolk mixture, and fold just until incorporated. This technique ensures that the ingredients are well combined while preventing the meringue from collapsing.
A water bath is crucial for a variety of reasons. A water bath evens out the oven’s temperature, making the atmosphere wet enough for the cake to rise without sharp rises and noticeable splits. A water bath aids in the retention of moisture in the batter during baking, giving the sponge a softer feel.
Avoid overfilling the water bath since doing so might reduce the oven’s temperature and lengthen the time it takes to bake the cake. I advise adding enough boiling water to a large baking tray to fill it to the top of the cake pan, or 1/2 inch. As the water bath is primarily required during the first stages of cake baking, don’t worry if it dries up throughout baking.

Always refer to the recipe card below for detailed directions and a list of precise ingredients.

Step 2: Add in the tomato paste and simmer for several minutes or until it darkens slightly in color.
Step 3: Add vodka and cook just enough to allow the alcohol to evaporate; it should take a minute or two. After that, include pepper flakes and heavy cream. Salt and pepper are used as seasonings.
Step 4: Add in the pasta, the saved cooking water, and butter. Toss the pasta until it is well coated with sauce.
Step 5: Toss in Parmesan cheese. As necessary, add salt and pepper. Immediately garnish with basil and serve.
