What's with Backstrap?

[Austrian Hunter]

Don't listen to anyone that tells you to cut it up. They are crazy! Trim it, season it, cook it on the grill nice a slow and don't over do it. Slice and enjoy!

Really......I've sliced mine as well.....I think the only wrong way to cook it is "well done". Other than that enjoy!

Haha, i tried the pole method about 13 years ago. Not sure if we made it 50 yards! Never again.

   Looks cool in the pictures of native Americans doing it.  I don't think I have ever met someone who has tried it more than once.  I know I will never try it again!

the trick to the pole method is a really long pole and to slide the animal right up close to the other person..

I like my back strap done London Broil style with a little blue cheese butter.  We never use iodized salt on game.  I prefer sea salt.  Mainly white, but other colors are fun and tasty too!

Man you crazy, Salt is Salt! mmm salt.

Oh man!  We've got a lot more to teach you besides archery, I guess   Next thing I know you'll be trying to tell me wine is wine and whiskey is whiskey

sea salt is full of minerals and very tasty and good for you, "table" salt is known as "death salt" by health professionals, its chemically extracted and has little or no health benefit.

butterfly those straps, bring to room temperature before cooking, fry HOT (5-600degrees) in EVO or bacon grease, add sea salt and pepper, cover for 5 minutes and serve. make sure to crosscut the grain with your knife as you eat.

  Sea salt is better for you than table salt.

Remember that sea salt is still salt though. You can't just add it and overconsume to an unhealthy level and not expect to have problems with your blood pressure.

Leave whole.
Grill whole.
Invite friends.
They bring beer.

Win/Win for all involved. 

I make 4 big chunks out of mine.  Once thawed, season w/ Kirkland Steak Rub (has salt, pepper, garlic and more) and leave in the fridge for 8 hours+.  Lightly coat with olive oil and let warm up for an hour if you can stand it.  BBQ for about 12 min/side (I flip every 6 because I like fancy grill marks) at 275 for med-rare.  Tent w/ foil on the cutting board for 10 min to rest and let it retract juices. Cut to desired thickness.  I'd be happy to show you and bring beer.   ENJOY!

The best backstrap and the most tender is as soon as you shoot the deer is to cut it off of the backbone and ribs is to lay it out on the game bags and cut 1/4 inch slabs off of the back end and eat it right there - don't let it cool at all....  BUT once it is cooled you have to cook it....  We carry seasoning in our packs for this once in a year treat

Sorry, I like my meat cooked.

I am just glad you didn't use the slow cooker.     It looks like it turned out well.
