If got a couple of venison tenderloins left from last year. Had anyone ever tried smoking them before? Recomendations?
Careful with them, no fat on them, they will dry out quickly. You also don't want to overcook venison, tastes a LOT better med rare. I suggest using oil or wrapping in bacon.
Never smoked em but I never thought venison was poultry either! ;D
Loins taste really good made into canadian bacon
I just finished making deer loin Pastrami this past Sunday. Used the basic recipe from the web site for pastrami with a few tweeks (I like white pepper). Just make sure to not to scimp on the rub. I actually tied two loins together to get them bigger and cut in half to get to fit on smoker racks. Made up 6 pastrami loaves (about 3-4 lb apiece) and only have 3 left not even one week later. Like the others have said, medium rare is plenty done for loins, I actually only take to about 140 F. Sure makes a mean Rueben sammie!!
