I miss our good buddy Grizzly Bill. I hope his wife Judy, kids, and grandson are all doing well.

I was just thinking about him the other day actually. still miss him and our PM's on here.
I did the tenderloin in the smoker last night. 225 for 2 hours was perfect. was going to take a pic but they didn't last long after they came out.

Yep, the older you get, the more you need to focus on what is important !

lost two this last week. I went yesterday with a few of the kids. Have I ever said I hate ice fishing? Well, I don't. But I could have made a case for it yesterday. We caught fish but it was friggin cold.

Dave,
How'd it go in the castle, on the weekend ? Real good. Fantastic weekend, plenty of fish, stayed warm, lots of laughs, no problems with equipment. Perfect

EXCELLENT !
I'll move my Ice Shack (Read; Hard sided & wood heated) out this weekend.
Will still fish from the portables, to nullify wind, but be nice to have the larger space to warm up, eat & BS in !

Congrats again Tom!
Congrats to the Chickenbuck girls too!
I processed my deer this weekend. I cut the backstraps in half and am going to try them on the smoker. Has anybody here ever done this? I would hate to dry them out and ruin them.
OH and tenderloins are still amazing btw! I wish the whole deer was one big tenderloin! lol Jim, this is how I've done mine, it's amazingly tender and you get the full flavor of the meat. I think I cooked them at 225-250 for 2 hours? hard to tell because my old smoker was a POS and I didn't trust the temp gauge thingy. I just got a feel for it and knew about how long to cook it. but I think my above statement is really close when I did these. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/6StIkiC.jpg) Just seeing this now. Thanks for the reply Ryan and again, CONGRATS on a great season! I cut my backstraps in half and want to try one that way. If I wrapped bacon on all around the whole thing, I wonder if the smoke would still get to the meat?

I did an antelope roast last night and no the smoke doesn't reach the meat. I was thinking about double smoking it starting with the meat, and then wrapping with bacon and smoking it again then just wait for it to come up to temp. no need to wrap in foil that way. I brought mine up to an internal temp of 144 and it was perfect, almost a pale white on the inside. this morning it was fairly pink what was left. I threw it in the crockpot on low so this evening it will pull apart nicely and we'll do fajitas. yum yum!

We had venison roast two nights ago and it was great. In the past I've not typically been a fan of the roasts. But this one made me a believer. It was fantastic.

long and slow is the key for my taste. we like to put a can of cream of mushroom and a can of tomato soup in there sometimes and make orange gravy. keeps it moist and is yummy over taters with a small veggie side. asparagus or broccoli are my favorites.
