Grilled Venison Steak and Bacon Recipe

For tender and delicious venison steak, marinate the meat in apple cider and barbecue sauce before wrapping it in bacon and grilling

October 15, 2014 By Raschell Rule

Serves: 6-8
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

2 pounds venison tenderloin steak (or backstrap)
1 quart apple cider
1 ½ pounds bacon
3 cups homemade barbecue sauce
vegetable oil

Directions:

Cut venison steak into 2-inch chunks and place in a dish. Add apple cider, making sure it covers all the meat. Let marinate for two hours in refrigerator.
Remove venison chunks from marinade and discard cider. Dry off venison and place back in the dish. Pour barbecue sauce over all and put back into the refrigerator for another two hours.
Wrap venison chunks in bacon and secure with toothpicks.
Clean grill grates and spray with vegetable oil. Grill venison on medium heat according to your personal preference (approximately 10-15 minutes). Turn often so the venison doesn't burn.

A day of saltwater fishing often starts before sunup and can continue until well after dark. Flashlights—whether they be handheld or hands-free models—are vital items for safety and success in the salt. In this episode, we take a close look at several models from Streamlight that are up for the task.

Caring for the Catch

Many saltwater species are excellent on the table, but only if you care for and clean them properly. Preparing your catch for a meal starts as soon as you land the fish, and knowing how to properly clean it back at the dock is vital in ensuring the best flavor. In this episode, we detail steps that will help you turn your catch into memorable meals.

Snook on the Hook

The snook is an ambush predator of the saltwater shallows, often hiding among mangroves and attacking prey as it swims by or is swept past by current. Finding spots where snook like to hide is key to catching them, and in this episode we slide in next to an gnarly edge of mangroves and make precise drifts with our baits to pull fish from the cover.
