Instructions

  1. Thaw meat thoroughly in the refrigerator for 24-36 hours.
  2. Remove meat from the packaging. Place on rack set over a rimmed baking sheet to catch any drips. Let meat wet age in the refrigerator for at least one hour. Up to 24 hours.
  3. Take roast out of refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cooking to allow to get closer to room temperature.
  4. Heat gas grill on medium-high heat powder for at least 5 minutes.
  5. Dry roast with paper towel. Season with salt, pepper and optional spices, if using. Slather a thin coat of olive on roast.
  6. Place roast on hot grill. If you use a bone in roast, place bone side down. Cook for about 10 minutes, until browned.
  7. Flip and cook for 10 more minutes.
  8. Add your favorite BBQ sauce and cook another minute or two. Check internal temperature with an instant read thermometer. It should be 130° or 55°C
  9. Let the meat rest tented under aluminum foil for at least 5-10 minutes.

Notes

  • This recipe is great for deer meat, elk, moose or antelope.
  • Completely thaw in the refrigerator for 24-48 hours.
  • Let meat dry age in the refrigerator for 24 hours. This will help tenderize the meat
  • Always let meat come to room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
  • Cook the roast to medium rare. Overcooking will result in tough meat.
  • Let roast rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
  • Either use bone in or boneless backstrap. Bone in will take a few extra minutes.
