GRILLED VENISON STEAKS
I've gone through much of the detail on how to properly grill a backstrap of venison (or elk, antelope, bison, moose etc.) above, but remember that this is done over high heat with the grill top open, and that it takes a good 15 to 20 minutes. Be patient and you will be rewarded.

Steps:
- Coat the venison backstrap in oil and salt well. Set aside for 30 minutes to 1 hour at room temperature.
- Get your grill hot, clean the grates and lay the venison on the grill. Keep the grill cover open. Let this cook 5 to 7 minutes without moving, depending on how hot your grill is and how thick your venison loin is. You want a good sear, with good grill marks, on that side of the meat. Flip and repeat on the other side.
- Do the finger test to check for doneness. If the venison needs some more time, turn it to sides that have not had direct exposure to the grill and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes, checking all the way. If you are using a barbecue sauce, paint the meat with it and let it caramelize on the meat for a minute or three.
- When the meat has been cooked to your liking, take it off the fire and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes. If you are using a spice rub now is the time to roll the meat in it.

- Season the steaks with salt and pepper. Rub the steaks liberally with the Cajun Dry Rub. You can let them sit in the fridge up to an hour like this or cook them right away.
- Marinade Preparation
- Place the steaks in a baking dish or a resealable bag. Add the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour and up to 12 hours. Remove the steaks from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Season the steaks lightly with salt and pepper.
- To Grill
- With a basting brush, brush both sides of the steaks lightly with the vegetable oil and then place the steaks on the grill.
- As with all grilling, let the grill do the work. Don't move the steaks at all until they release easily from the grill, about 4 minutes. Flip the steaks and grill on the second side for 3-4 minutes.
- Use an instant-read thermometer to tell you when they're done: insert the thermometer horizontally into the steaks from the shorter side.
- Remove the steaks from the grill at 125° for medium rare and 130° for medium.
- Set aside to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
