Recipe FAQs and Variations

What is the best to soak deer meat in before cooking?

While it’s not really necessary to soak your deer meat before cooking, soaking it any vinegar-based solution can help tenderize the meat. In this recipe, the liquid aminos and lemon juice work to tenderize the meat.

Are tenderloin tips the same as backstraps?

No, backstops and venison tenderloin actually come from two separate parts of the animal. Backstraps come from the deer’s back, while the tenderloins are beneath the spine.

What temperature should I cook venison steak to?

There are many resources out there for safe internal temperature, like this steak temps and time chart from Traeger grills.
