A friend of ours cooks those small pieces of tenderloin wrapped in bacon -- he prepares them at the high school tailgating we do on home game Fridays.

When I process my deer, I leave the tenderloins and backstraps whole, or sometimes cut into thick steaks. I wrap the whole thing in a spiral of bacon pieces staked end-to-end until it is fully covered and sear it on the grill and then lower the coals for about the 5-7 minutes on a side (I treat the roll as 4 sides).

Now, I'm hungry!

Busy. I haven’t had two days in a week off but once in months. Better than the alternative though!

Thanks for the ping! Much appreciated!

I heard a great recipe in this vein the other day: Venison bacon hamburger patties. 3/4 ground venison, 1/4 ground bacon. Must try this.
