Just a quick tip: filet that backstrap like you would a fish; silver skin (tendon) down, knife blade inserted on top of tendon, turn blade almost flat and skim along top of tendon strip. If done correctly almost no meat will be left on the tendon.

Thanks for spending the time to show us a very quick and simple yet tasty recipe :)

right when i saw this dudes shirt tucked in i knew he was gonna do 5 mins per side lol

Great video man. Got a big cut I need to cook today. Thanks for the info

My favorite way is season both sides with garlic salt and lemon pepper,put a small amount of butter on top while cooking,3½ minutes per side 😋

Looks good ! Can’t wait to try it. Thanks.

I really appreciate all your videos

Yep you overcooked it. Try 3 to 4 mins a side at that temp. If a person has a place to hang the dressed skinned deer, try aging it for about 10 days to 2 weeks like you would beef. You wanna talk about fork tender! I’ve been cooking deer filet mignons for years like that and you won’t believe it’s venison. Made a lot of people believers over the years! Like the video sir! ✌️

Yep,it's even better and quicker by getting the temp up to 500 deg. And turning off one side of the grill that you intend to put meat on and 3min per side with a little apple wood smoke box and let sit for 5 mins after under foil. The best there is period.

I do about 2-3 minutes per side, with a little salt and pepper, and maybe some garlic salt. You can eat them with a spoon! Hard to beat grilled backstrap!

Love the fact people won't eat wild game, because of the taste. Better hunting spots for us 😁

Dale’s seasoning is the best!

Like most people that talk about venison you only touch on the most important part. It is the part from when you pull the trigger until the meat is cut up and ready to eat or go in the freezer. I hang all my deer a minimum of 21 days and if it is bigger Buck I will go to 28 days or more. Dry aging venison is key to having good tender meat. You also over cooked those steaks, venison is served rare, not medium rare . If you don't like rare meat then just let the deer live. I harvest 3 to 6 deer every year and have taken and eating well over a hundred. I am constantly told my venison is the best people have ever eaten. You have to hang your deer or you will never be any better than half as good as it could be. If you hunt respect the animal enough to make the meat the best it can be.

I like this guy. Good video

Thanks for sharing this

Silver skin , shoulder bones and trimmings . Boil up with chopped onions for liquid when you stew the shoulder meat

So much marinade and seasoning on a backstrap? Looks really good, but I like just salt, pepper and olive oil on my backstrap.

Awesome video!

Looks delicious!

That looks mighty good!

I love searing trimmed round steak, put it in a crockpot with sliced onions and peppers, a clove of pressed garlic, a jar of marinara sauce, a can of beef broth and cook low for 6 hours, or high for 4 hours. Serve over rice, noodles or mashed potatoes

Nice recipe for venison!

Looks great. Try a Wellington next. Awesome.

I do the same thing. How ever my marinade is bourbon, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder and garlic powder. It always comes out fantastic!

10 mins at 400 degrees? That is going to be a hockey puck

looks great will try it out. greetings from Switzerland!

Flip it silverskin down and filet it like a fish off the skin

Bro have your knife skills improved since the launch of the vid?

😳😳 That looks so good

Good job. I do the same thing. Dales makes just about anything better. Dont listen to all the negativity

Looked like the fork had trouble

lol... "recipe" = Dale's

Great video but, if you flip your strap to where the skin is on bottom you can cut it off in one wack. Don’t know why you did it that way? (a small piece @ a time)

Excellent video! My Mom and I were gifted some venison and we're looking up the best way to make it right. I've had deer once before and it was honestly the best meat I've ever tasted. I typically eat mostly a plant-based diet, but I have a better time with hunted game because I know that the chances are higher that the animal was killed and treated with dignity, and got to live a free life outside of a cramped corporate factory. I also believe that regulated hunting would be better for the environment, but we should be making more plant-based alternatives. Hey vegans are annoying, but the sane ones? Their imitations are *scary accurate.* Side note; the low sodium is a good option. I wasn't raised hunting or in the country, but the stereotype is that hunters and stuff don't particularly care about their health. I didn't think that was _particularly_ true, but I am happy to be proven wrong. *EDIT* I forgot to ask, but can we make this in the oven? We don't have grill that's temperature-controlled, just a regular charcoal burning one.

Thank You for a Great Video ( THANK MORE FOR NO MUSIC) yuse da Man !

This guy is John C Reilly on a barbecue.

You overcooked that backstrap. At 1” thick, 3 min on each side and the let it rest for 3-5 min.

amazing content friend

The key is to make deer taste like beef. And this is done by a quick cook time. The longer you go, the worse and more gamey it taste.

Cook it on the skillet for the same time?

I do mine the same except 2 or 3 min per side rather than 5. 5 seems a bit long I like them rare medium rare at best

I just ate the entire backstraps of a deer for breakfast this morning. It was a small deer. Very tender meat.

Seasoning/marinade is a personal choice. There is no "right" answer. But for me, the best commercial marinade available is the "Soy and Lime" by Allegro. I've used pretty much everything over the years, and this one is just perfect for venison, IMO. If you really want to step it up mix it 4-1 my other favorite Allegro product, their "Teriyaki" marinade. It's a rich, complex marinade, not just teriyaki. It's not overly sweet. (I"m not affiliated with Allegro in any way - just love their products!)

Can venison be cooked in a slow cooker?

venison chops... As many pieces together to make a steak. Lots of toothpicks here. Wrap the "steak" with a couple strips of bacon and use the toothpicks to hold the bacon to the "steak". Season to your liking. I only use salt, pepper and a little powered garlic... Grill or broil as you wish. Never had any venison better. I prefer medium.

Cavendar's Greek formula! That's my horse.

Over cooked medium rare is where you want it

marinate in Kraft (not sponsored by) sundried tomato and oregano salad dressing.....yum

That looks good we usely eat them wen skinning them out

Good vid young fella 👍 I'm always open for dif recipes ♠️ 🇨🇦 72 expat

You could put dale’s seasoning on boot leather and I would eat it

Gordon ramsay wants your location

Some of the best meat on planet earth!

1.5" steaks at room temp. Grill at 600 Degrees. Cast iron skillet. Only a little olive oil, heavy salt coat on meat, fresh cracked pepper, and a touch of fresh minced garlic pressed into the meat grain. 2 1/2 minutes a side for a clean medium rare. Any other method is a waste of the backstrap. IMHO :)

Why not put the loin on the table with silver skin down and then remove as much as possible in the first pass. That silver skin is sinew and it has value as well as the loin which is about to be made as tough as sinew.

I’m always amazed at how bad some of the hunters, butchers and chefs are with a knife. I remove the sinew on the back strap same way I remove skin from a fish fillet. Flip it over, start an edge, and run your knife with downward pressure from one end to the other. Then you will actually have no waste instead of the waste I routinely see on KZfaq videos. Also, if you’re just going to butterfly you can simple leave that sinew on there…holds your butterflies together perfectly.

“It’s very Important not to over cook” over cooks

Shouldn’t it be sizzling at that temperature?

Is that from one of those Florida deer? Jk bud great looking strap, I like to flavor inject them and grill em whole.

i love it how you destroy te best meat in the world

Maybe think of other countries before using dale's seasoning , cause we can't see it in Australia.

You REALLY need to try my method for getting the silverskin off. Instead of having the silverskin on the up side of your backstrap. Turn it over so the silverskin is on the bottom and use your fillet knife to remove the silverskin in the same manner you would use to fillet the skin off a fish fillet. I find that using a knife that's NOT razor sharp works best as a semi dull knife won't cut through the silverskin very easily. You'll be amazed how cleanly it comes off taking no meat with it...Trust me on this one. This isn't a recipe...It's a commercial for Dale's and Cavender's. Make your own marinade and seasonings. And that's overdone for backstrap.

i like this guy

dales may be good for jerky but that's all. cook the whole lion. always make your own marinade, spices and seasoning.

A 10 min add for someone's bottle of sauce.

Any msg in ur marinade?where do u get it ?

country or chicken fried cubed venison backstraps with mashed taters, white gravy and peas. Is the best way to eat venison. Dale's masks the flavor of the meat.

Good presentation! Agrre with the overcooking statement, it can ruin a good cut quick.

Video should have been called ‘How I use Dales on my venison’ smh

Love all the so called experts in the comment section. Pfft, know it alls.

Did he just say “so that all the blood runs towards the deer’s face”......?

ive always noticed that a 'good' venison recipe always requires a marinade, rapped in bacon, and/or a bunch of spices. Never just salt an pepper cook and eat. and then the intention, as this video admits, is to acquire a 'beef' like taste.

Okay we wanna cook these on 375. Okay I have the grille up to temp at 400 degrees. You dont want to go too far below 400, maybe a little bit higher, but not too far below. Those steaks looked great. Dales is some of the best all around marinade. I never have really used it on pork. Thanks for the video.

dude, so no dales and im s.o.l..

This is my food porn!

1/2 dales 1/2 water is better I think

Overcooked

i’m not a hunter but i am a gf who’s been brought a ton of deer meat and my deep freezer is literally full

To many spices all it needs is salt and heavy on the black pepper. My opinion. Good video.

Lot of negative comments here? Recipe looks really good to me. I like the butterfly technique too , will try it out.

If you are cooking with Dale's, you really can't appreciate the uniquness of game meat.

Looks can be deceiving you should probably send me some of that to taste test

It’s not “stringy stuff on the ends”.... it’s called the “chain” and it’s best to slice off and throw in your grind. Or, a quick dog treat as I do.

Not really a recipe that can be used by everyone, it's Dale's and cavandeers, never heard of either one. Not trying to slam you bud but using premade spices is not a recipe.

Said not wasting much meat when in fact there is a better way to get almost all the silver skin at once. fillet knife works great if you use it like a fillet knife. As in flip it over aqnd skin it like a fish. There will be almost zero meat on the skin. And yes, 5 minutes a side is too much. Use a meat thermometer every time and between 130 to 150. I like 140 degrees. Yeah, 5 minutes is far too long.

I bet you pay to have it processed as well

This is the only way I like venison. Grilled is best I always over cooked it when pan frying

Wasted more meat than I would have. Get your cut on that silver skin started, flip it over, pull the cutting board to the edge of the counter like you would when fileting a fish and proceed. Or, my favorite, get about an inch cut off on the end and just pull it off. Literally no waste.

So just soak it in some sugary pre made marinade and cook it until it’s tuff as a boot. Got it.

If you put Dale's on anything, that tells me you don't know how to cook.

"I'm gonna wash my hands real quick" - immediately grabs the meat with bare hands again and doesn't wash them

Dude must be from Alabama. Dale's is the tell.

Let me show you the best venison recipe, Step 1. Start with this seasoning marinade you dont have that I’m sponsored by Step 2. Cook it 5 minutes each side

Try a squirt of Italian dressing with your dales, it cuts the sodium taste plus adds to the taste.

36” grill. Let me smash all the meat together in the center of the grill 👎

Baby doe or dog

rec·i·pe /ˈresəˌpē/ noun a set of instructions for preparing a particular dish, including a list of the ingredients required. Not just the spices. Grow up people and kindly show us the link to your video.

you took the flavor out of the deer steak the min. you marinated it. salt and pepper is all you need.

Do exactly what this gentleman is doing as far as trimming. THEN... pepper, onion powder, a little garlic powder, and Montreal Steak Seasoning after olive oil spray on the entire backstrap. Next, wrap the entire backstrap with applewood smoked bacon. Lastly, grill on low to medium heat until the bacon is crispy. The backstrap will be medium-well, very juicy, full of flavor and tender. Enjoy! Will feed about 4 adults, or 2 adults and 1 teenage boy.

Not trying to add to the hate but one major thing i would tell someone who wants to try this is Do Not cut the meat to see if its done. Use a meat thermometer. Venison is already super lean and you need to retain the juices as much as possible. When you cut into it they will leak out. Also let the meat rest before cutting into it. This helps lock the juices in and makes for better presentation on the plate as it wont make a pool of juices/blood all ocer the plate. Doesnt bother me but my wife and some friends are turned off by it.
