What's with Backstrap?
« Reply #60 on: April 15, 2013, 09:30:23 PM »
I've done it wrapped in pig whole, sliced and naked, whole on the grill - I've yet to have bad straps (or loin and rib steak as we call it depending on what rib it's cut from). But like tonight, I go the way I was brought up. Sliced, floured, fried briefly, and with a milk gravy made out of the leftover oil and crunchy goodies. Mashed taters and corn to finish it off. I have never had anyone leave anything on their plate.

And it should be a rule that a knife should never be needed.

I like to roll the backstrap in melted butter and then some seasoning.  Pan fry after that, so good.

Be sure not to over cook wild venison. Over cooking is the best way to ruin a great meal.

:yeah: x1000

My dad always cooked it until it was gray all the way through.  I hated venison growing up.  Now that I'm a big boy and know how to do it myself, it comes out great everytime.  Just warm but still red in the center :drool:

Back strap is overrated.  My cows top sirloin had finer (feather) grain.

I marinade mine in creamy Italian with onions garlic and other seasonings for a few days then wrap the whole thing in bacon and grill er up with onions in between the bacon and strap. Ive had it most ways put in this thread and that's one of my favorite.

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

Anybody else ever try this?  I'm on the fence, but I am thinking of bringing my little backpacking stove, or maybe just some sterno, and cooking up a slice.  I too have backpackers seasoning bottles for when I'm in the woods a few days at a time.
I wish I had more backstrap now... cant wait for huntin season already!

I don't think he cooks his.  Just eats it at body tempurature

Ya, I got that. I was wondering if anyone else foes it raw like he does.
I personally am not sure if I would be willing to eat it raw, I am thinking of bringing my stove to at least heat it up a little and brown it on the outside. Just to experience it fresh...not sure about raw. I
I guess the idea of raw intrigues me. Maybe I'm hoping a few other hunters will chime in and say "yeah, its great raw". Then I would probably try it.
