Last night after the snow I fired up the ole Brinkman. I took a half backstrap and after letting it marinade with a little bit of this and a little bit of that I set it free. I hope you enjoy the pics.

I used some Italian dressing, Sweet Baby Ray's bar-b-Q sauce, and some home made rub. After working the marinade and rub into the meat I let it sit all day in the refrigerator until I was ready to smoke them. I let the mesquite chips soak in water for an hour before putting them on the coals.

I let the backstarps smoke for about an hour and a half, until the internal temperature was 160 degrees. It was very tasty and tender.
Here's what it looked like early on in the day. (B.C. before charcoal)

Here's what it looked like after marinading all day.

Heating the coals and the cook up.

For medicinal purpose only, just in case the fire went out 8) :shock: :lol: :lol:

Looks Great Cesar, Venison Backstraps on the Smoker....Life is good

 

[Rabbit Chaser]

That looks great! I like to do my backstraps on the smoker as well. I marinate in Beer and Dale's seasoning then wrap in bacon and smoke!

I've also doen mine that way and it is great. I also like Dale's sauce, bacon and then grill the backstrap after I've cut them into 3/4" slices. They're so good that I've had people argue with me saying that there is no way that it was venison. Dale's sauce is my favorite marinade.

Dales seasoning sauce is some great stuff. The backstraps wrapped in bacon sound great.

I forgot to add this picture to my earlier post. This is the backstrap ready to eat after I took it off the smoker. We had corn, and greenbeans from our garden as well as some garlic bread. The meal was fit for a king :lol:

I have to be careful around here, my daughters both love venison so whenever I grill or smoke venison I always have to hide a little for the cook. 8)
I'm hoping to make it to the Rally this Spring. If I can make it I will bring the smoker and plenty of venison, we had a banner year so there should be plenty of venison. I also make a pretty good batch of deer jerky.

Curt,

Its about time you break it out Get the backstraps out of the Freezer and you will be good to go

 

[ElecTech]

Dang Curt, break that thing out of the box. Mine is electric so it is even easier to use. So easy, even a caveman could do it!!! :lol: Get yourself a cheap internal temp, mine is remote and have at it!!

 

[Cesar]

Curt, you need to break out that sucker and have at it. Although they are not as convenient as the gas and electric they smoke a mean meal. My wife loves charcoal that is why we went that route. They work pretty good and since you got yours free you know the meats will taste even better :lol:
