Went pretty well actually.

Backstrap was in a 2#ish roast.
Seasoned with Mcormicks Montreal steak seasoning.
Set my little smoker to low, it was running 125-150*.  I smoked the roast that way for 45min or so then pulled it and set grill to max.
Once it was over 500* I put the roast back on and grilled it like I have seen recommended.  Took longer than I thought at high temp to get it done.  Probably should have left it on a few min longer as it was a hair underdone in the center (pulled @125, was around 130* when cut).  That said it was very good and the slight smoke added to the profile nicely.  Steak seasoning seemed a bit overpowering.

Now you need to Sous Vide a chunk and then finish on a hot grill or cast iron pan with butter.
Yummy  :P

Good Idea and tell whoever is buying for you to splurge and buy the Joule they are bad ass. Or buy your wife a Joule for Christmas and then use the heck out of it.  8)

Hmm. I thought backstraps and tenderloins were for breakfast only. Learn something every day

I was thinking Annova.  What is it about the Joule that makes you recommend it?

The Joule will heat a large amount of water so you can do a large piece of meat like a prime rib or a bone in ham. Also you control it through your phone so you can leave the house and turn it on and off and change the heat from work or whatever it’s super easy to use. I received it as a gift and I absolutely love it.

I am sure it is good but no better than any other cuts once canned. I canned a lot of deer and elk and it is all very good. I like to save unsteaked logs for the grill and bite sized over an open fire !

I've smoked backstrap and tenderloin with good success using the following brine:
1 gallon water
3/4 cup salt
1/2 cup soy sauce1/4 cup worchestire sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup molasses
1 tbs rosemary
2 tbs pepper
Brine a tenderloin for 2 hours minimum and a backstrap 4 - 6. I smoke it in my Bradley smoker at 225 until it reaches and internal temp of 130.
