Tips for Cooking Venison on the BBQ

Use high-quality venison: Opt for venison that is fresh, well-trimmed, and properly stored. Ensure it has been properly field dressed and cooled quickly to maintain its quality.
Tenderize the venison: Venison can be tougher than other meats, so it's important to tenderize it before cooking. You can do this by marinating it for several hours or overnight, using a meat tenderizer, or pounding it with a mallet.
Don't overcook the venison: Venison is a lean meat, so it's important not to overcook it. Overcooked venison will be tough and dry. Cook it to an internal temperature of 145°F for medium-rare, 160°F for medium, or 170°F for well-done.
Use a flavorful marinade: A flavorful marinade will help to enhance the taste of the venison. You can use a variety of ingredients in your marinade, such as olive oil, red wine, herbs, spices, and citrus juice.
Cook the venison over direct heat: When grilling venison, it's best to cook it over direct heat. This will help to sear the outside of the meat and keep it juicy on the inside.
Let the venison rest before slicing: Once the venison is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion

Venison is a delicious and healthy meat that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. When grilling venison, it's important to use high-quality meat, tenderize it before cooking, and not overcook it. With the right techniques, you can create delicious and flavorful venison dishes that your family and friends will love.
