Venison Backstrap
Trim all silverskin and fat. Season liberally with Montreal Steak Seasoning or simply salt and pepper.
Grill on a hot grill to desired temperature.
Let rest while covered for 7-10 minutes and slice thin.
Note: Venison is best rare to medium rare due to the lack of fat. Freezing and thawing your venison before cooking will eliminate the risk of eating rare meat.

- 2 tablespoons fresh oregano

Add all ingredients in blender or food processor and blend until a coarse liquid. Add more cilantro, parsley and oregano to thicken.
Top your sliced venison backstrap with the Chimichurri and enjoy!
