The guy I get my apple wood from gave me two of the these. do any of you guys have any idea how to do these. I was thinking of rubing them down wraping them in bacon and smokeing them at 300F I have no idea what temp to pull them off at. they are bone less and are about 3-4 pounds each.

Chris, I had good luck with deer treating them like a butt. The last one we did we covered with rub and marinated it overnight in wine. Smoked it at 225 for three hours with bacon strips over it. Put it in a pan along with a beer and covered it with foil until it reached 175 and let it sit for an hour covered. Super good.

Hi
Venison BBQ may need some bacon on top for moisture.
Garlic, salt and pepper.
Cherry wood / and or pecan. I have not used apple, but that sounds like a great wood to use with venison.
Low and slow to 190F.

Both of the above look good to me. I might inject a bit of olive oil, some herbs and a bit of bourbon. You need to be concerned about dryness.

Garry posted a good receipe for goat that ought to work for your venison roasts.

Thanks for all of your help guys what I ended up doing was suffing it with garlic and then rubbed it with EVOO and then put some rub on it. I basted every 30 min with oil wrapped in foil when it hit 120 and pulled it off when it hit 140. And quick seared it in a frying pan to get the outside crusty. they came out great moist and tender.
