    Best way to prepare Venison Back Straps?

    A buddy of mine gave me 2 large back straps that I thawed out and want to fix for a small gathering tonight. What is a good way to cook these? I see a lot of white membrane covering them. Should I remove this like on a rack of ribs or will it soften and be edible?

    40" MES 800 watt heating element MOD

    qview test #1

    No problem smoking in the garage other than it was very cold and windy. Smoked during the storm last Sunday. My MES only made it up to 208 degrees at it's hottest. The ribs took 7 1/2 hours and were not "fall off the bone".

    My Butt is Enhanced, Is that Bad?

    Serving pulled pork at my son's birthday party this weekend. Went to Walmart and picked up a couple of butts. When I got home I noticed they were enhanced with up to 12% solution. Is this bad and is there anything I can do to compensate for it?
