Anyone that harvests a deer, I will pay for the disposal of the tenderloins.  I will hook you up with a dry ice supplier and the money for overnight freight to my place.  No one should have to eat that cut.  When you dice it and do a simple sear with caramelized onions, it's just horrible.  Makes you want to die.  Won't even stay together in your mouth, it just has to fall apart at the first chew and explode with "flavor".

I like the heart, I like the liver, I every scrap of meat I can get off the bones.

I do NOT like the brain.  Prions terrify me.

I see more people driving those lately.  I hear they may not have a lot of power, but get great mileage.   >:D

I like to make fajitas with steaks cut from the hind quarters. Cut the meat into very thin strips, no thicker than 1/8" and try to cut them across the grain.  Marinade them in Worcester sauce, soy, lime juice, adobo spice mix and green Tabasco .
Slice up red peppers and onions and fry them I a very hot cast iron skillet til soft and have some good char marks.
Remove the veg from the pan and get it very hot again.  Add a couple tablespoons of oil and QUICKLY cook the meat, about 1 min.  Add the veg back to the pan and pour in about a 1/4 cup of the same marinade mix that was used for the meat, mix and remove from the heat.
Sever with warm corn tortillas , sour cream , guacamole, cilantro and a squeeze of lime.
I made these at the TN Classic this year for Matt and heather Wirwicki with moose over the fire pit.  Smoke in the eyes added to the flavor, lol.
When I stop learning please put me in a box!

A good roast put in a slow cooker with two cans of mushroom soup and cooked all day. Best meat there is.

I got a meat tenderizer that you can put small cuts of steak through, which makes a cubed or Salsbury type of meat. Pan fry then add flour and water with portabella mushrooms and  cook for couple hours on low heat.

It's all good. I like the sirloin tips left whole for roast, grilled steaks cut from the tender center-ham muscle, all of it. Ground is great for tacos, burgers, whatever. I like ham meat sliced into strips for stir-fry, sliced paper thin for gyros or Phillie steaks, or cubed, breaded, and fried. Backstraps are great any way you fix them. My favorites are butterflied into steaks or left whole and grilled medium-rare, or sliced into medallions, pounded, and fried in cast-iron with some fried taters and cornbread. Tenderloins like the backstraps. I've even oiled a tenderloin with sesame oil, rolled it in black and white sesame seeds, grilled medium-rare and served with pickled ginger like tuna. The whole shoulders make great smoked, pulled bbq. Deer meat is great any way you fix it as long as you don't overcook it.

My family eats several deer a year, and I go outside the box with it sometimes.

All sound excellent........but my recipe and prep is so simple and quick. Kind of a local "apache favorite" in my group. After a successful day of hunting take fresh deer/elk ribs split down with backbone in or out. Next with meat side out place over hardwood coals on a grill about 10-12" from heat source for about 10mins. Sprinkle meat side with fresh cracked pepper and salt. I also add a touch of garlic powder. For final cook off, flip on to flesh side for 5-8mins depending on heat. Chop into sections and serve in fresh tortillas wrap with roasted green chili. Good stuff after a long day.
Also Leg shank over coals. Roast marrow, than crack open and smear marrow butter onto fresh tortillas O:).
