Buddy gave me some backstraps....Usually I jerky all the deer meat he gives me, but I'd like to do something different with this good cut of meat...possibly in the Crock Pot (Slow Cooker).
Any recipes?
Did a search, but didn't turn up anything useful.

Remove surface fascia ("silverskin") if that has not been done already. Cut steaks across grain, 3/4 - 1" thick, and place them in the crockpot. Carry the crockpot out to the grill. Cook hot and fast to rare/light medium rare. Salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy.
OK, do a very light/quick marinade first if you must. Soy/Teryaki/oyster sauce/light garlic.

I'd just cut some steaks and throw them and some butter in a screaming hot, cast iron pan. 20 seconds per side should do it.

Step away from the Crock pot with that meat you would not throw prime rib in a crock pot you dont throw back straps in either
Fire up a nice smoking hot cast iron skillet, slice meat into 1 inch slabs across the grain, do a light rub of spices and blacken both side with a quick sear leaving the middle nice and red just warm and perfect for eating.
Make some Garlic mashed taters, a nice loaf of crusty bread and a good red wine now that is dinner

I made a simple marinade of about a cup of olive oil, garlic, a pinch of salt, 2 TBS of balsamc vinegar and a TBS of red wine vinegar. I was worried I used too much vinegar but it worked very very well. Baste it while on the grill constantly with the marinade.
I love to dredge the steaks in flour, garlic powder, salt and pepper then throw in a hot pan with a splash of olive oil. It helps hold in the juices.
More and more, I prefer KISS with wild game.

Thanks for all the ideas...crock pot is put away

I've made Wellington out of the backstraps if they are intact. Perfect with a green onion Madeira sauce.
