I have 2 deer hams that I would like to smoke, since there is not any fat in venison what would y'all recommend & does any one have a recipe for smoking venison?
Is it a whole, bone-in rear quarter or a boneless roast? I tried to do a venison top sirloin roast low and slow to 135° last week. It's the first time I ever tried it. The flavor was good but the texture was soft and mushy. Not sure if it was my technique or the cut but the results weren't great.
Bone in rear roast, I know i have to get some kind of fat to it. I just do not know if I insert it or wrap it with bacon or what. I can inject it too. Just check to see if some on the forum has done before with good results.
Wrap it in bacon or cover with cheesecloth & baste it with butter. Then grill/roast to medium rare & slice. IMO: Trying to do a venison roast low & slow just doesn't work well. Enjoy it for the great lean meat that it is & don't try to make it into something it's not.
