Hello all! I vacum pack my backstraps in quarters so nothing wasted. Going to smoke this afternoon. Got it seasoned with Killer Hogs all purpose seasoning and will wrap the chunk in bacon. I will smoke at 275 degrees. Not concerned with cook time. I am focused on the IT. Don't like and won't eat bloody deer meat. Need it a little over medium Well. I usually fry it so not to savvy on smoking backstrap. However, I can smoke a killer hind quarter but that's different. Any help on the IT will be much appreciated.
 
Over in my Venison Roast like Prime Rib thread I have some info that may helps:

Basically a temp of 140F IT should get you where you want to go.

Here is what a Venison Top Round roast looks like at 140F IT.

Here is what a Venison Bottom Round roast looks like at 133F.

I hope this info helps :)
