[tommiegunnz]

Wow its been a while since I've posted pics on here, so here we go!!!

Decided to smkoe up some deer today.

First part of the smoke is a roast that marinaded overnight, got rubbed down witha homemade sweet and spicy rub abd is smoking over hickory.

Part two a little later will be tenderloin.

Here are some pics to whet the appetite!

Looks like a great start what temp are you taking it to?

I normally take deer to about 155, I find the kids eat it well there, unless I plan on pulling it to make chili, then it hits 190.

Here's another peek, just before I mopped the roast for the first time, gonna check temps in about 1/2 an hour or so, should be getting close to prep time for the tenderloin!!!

Ok sorry for the late finish, my wife and kids went out of town with the camera.

Unfortunately when I brought the meat to my buddies house and started cutting people fell into it like ravenous wolves so I didn't get any sliced pics, but the tenderloin did melt in the mouth.

Wow. 190 degrees and you can pull your venison? Those northern deer must be different from ours.

I have NEVER been able to cook venison that was edible until I was
introduced to a smoked plate of it.. All the time I thought that U had to grind it into burger in order to be able to eat it. It gave me an even BIGGER respect for the indians that were here before us.
I tried smoking it low and slow as instructed.

The first time I had a bit TOO much smoke flavor but it was WAY better than any I have ever done before.
Looks like U done good. Hemi..

Does it still get that deer taste by smoking it? I hate venison unless its mixed with a bunch of other stuff to mask its taste.

I got to try smoking a tenderloin sometime!!!! That looks really tasty. Never have done any venison .... except for sausge, snack sticks, venison bacon.... but not a ROAST.... I got to try it sometime!!! Looks Good....

Looks like some tenderloins and some sliced backstraps to me. Am I right?
Looking good.
Gonna have to pull some out of the freezer soon, but I won't have the tenderloins, those go on the grill the evening of the kill!!!
