I get lots of requests from hunters for game recipes. So this is the first installment this winter of for game. In this case, deer back strap (tenderloin to you non hunters.)
It's a pretty simple recipe, but the results were outstanding. So much so, that my sister who wrinkles her nose and scoffs at anything venison related, sampled a bite she thought was beef. She raved about it, then I told her it was deer. She had that moment of indecision. That second where she thought about going off on her little brother for the trick (which would've made her a hypocrite since she raved about the taste), but in the end, she shrugged and said, "Whatever it is, it's great."
Here is the full write up with step by step instructions including how to remove the dreaded gaminess, and here are the pictures that hopefully make you hungry:
Warning, if you like your steak prepared beyond medium, don't scroll down any farther. The rest of you, feast your eyes on my perfect steak:
