Hardwater Vension Backstrap
« on: Oct 05, 2004, 01:38 PM »
As my name infers, I know a good deal about preparing wild game. Here's my favorite hardwater feast.

Venison Back strap- Fillet Mignon style

One package of back strap, sliced bacon, salt, pepper, garlic powder (or cloves pressed) one finely sliced onion, round toothpicks

Rub backstrap steaks with spices, and wrap steaks with bacon slices. They should look like fillet mignon at this point. Use the round toothpick (I've found the square break too easily) to pin the bacon on. Place bacon wrapped steaks in zip lock bag with sliced onions and refrigerate for one day. These are best over charcoal, but the key is to not overcook them. Cook over well-ashed coals slowly..when red juice starts to form a puddle on the top of the steaks, they are very close to done.

MMM...
This is my favorite grilled food, too. I've never had it on the ice, and I've never refrigerated the steaks for a day with the spices and bacon. Does this make a big difference?

    How do you keep the backstraps till you have ice ???  It does'nt ice up here till Jan. and my backstraps are long gone by then!!!  I usually will squirrel away a few packs of venison jerky to enjoy on the ice though.

I know what your talking about, my straps don't even make it out of deer camp!!!
Thank God you have to skin the deer for the other loin steaks, or them won't make it back here either!!

I age my deer for 7 to 10 days.  40 degrees F is the best case.  That in itself makes a huge difference.  Ill try this reciepe with my venison.
Sounds awesome
