Venison Backstrap Recipe - Marinated and Grilled

Let’s dive into the vibrant world of flavors with this incredible venison backstrap recipe. Whether you’re a seasoned grill master or a passionate home cook, this dish promises to impress your taste buds and those of your guests.

Grilled Venison Backstrap ### Ingredients:

2 pounds venison backstrap
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Start by preparing the marinade. In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and chopped rosemary. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
Place the venison backstrap in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag (or cover the dish) and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing the flavors to infuse.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat for direct grilling. Remove the backstrap from the marinade and let it sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before grilling.
Once the grill is hot, place the venison backstrap on the grates. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the cooking time according to your preferred doneness. A meat thermometer is a handy tool here; aim for an internal temperature of 130-135°F for medium-rare.
When cooked to your liking, remove the backstrap from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This step is crucial as it allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy and flavorful outcome.
Slice the backstrap against the grain into medallions and serve hot. Pair it with your favorite sides, and enjoy the rich flavors of this grilled delicacy!
