Title: Deer Tenderloin YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS!
Post by: EastWaViking on November 22, 2008, 07:42:46 PM: This is always my favorite cut of meat, but tonight was possibly the best meal I've ever had.

whole Deer tenderloins
dip one side in light olive oil (so it doesn't stick to the grill)
coat in crushed garlic
heavy on the pepper
a little salt

Get the grill going hot with some good chunks of mesquite wood.
Grill on high when the mesquite wood is smoking good for about 5 min. to seal in the juices turn after about two min.
turn to low for another 10 or until med rare.

Serve with the best red wine you can find. We had LaToscana Rosso Rustico (Cab, merlot, Cab Franc blend) WOW!!!!!!!

Try some Wyndam Estates Bin 555 Shiraz not quite as mellow as Rosemont, sure goes good with venison. Australian Shiraz wines can't be beat. Boy now I'm getting thirsty. :chuckle:

:drool:
Any time i help someone with a butchering,field dressing, or hauling an animal. All i want is the tenderloin. Most of my buddys think ii am off my rocker untill i cook them up over an open fire and tell them to cookthere own meat, this is my reward for my hard work.
:fire.:
Open fire: Rub EVO and season with seasalt and fresh ground pepper on skewer ot in a basket. In the fry pan i season the same but cut in to chunks and sprinkle lemon juice on it while it cooks.

High heat only, never simmer, you lose the flavor.
