Ingredients:

Serving

2 tart apples such as granny smith, cut into 1/3-inch dice
1 cup brandy
1/4 cup sugar
4 cups blackberries (1 lb), halved lengthwise
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp thinly sliced fresh mint
8 (3- to 4-oz) venison rib chops or 1 (8- rib) rack of venison* (1 1/2 to 2 lb),cut into 8 chops
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cracked black pepper
2 tbsp vegetable oil

Directions:

Make compote: Bring apples, brandy, and sugar to a boil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan, stirring, then boil until liquid is reduced to about 1/4 cup, about 12 minutes. Stir in blackberries and remove from heat.
Cook venison and finish compote: Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 500°F.
Pat chops dry, then stir together rosemary, salt, and cracked pepper and rub all over chops.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 10-inch heavy skillet (preferably cast-iron) over moderately high heat, then sauté 4 chops, turning over once, until well browned, about 4 minutes total. Transfer to a shallow baking pan. Cook remaining 4 chops in remaining tablespoon oil in same manner.
Roast chops in oven until medium-rare, about 3 minutes. Let chops stand, loosely covered with foil, 5 minutes.
While chops stand, reheat compote over moderately low heat, gently stirring occasionally, until hot, then gently stir in butter, mint, and salt and pepper to taste.
Serve chops with compote.
