As far as deer meat goes, it doesn’t get better than fresh backstrap. Adding in this special glaze and bacon just takes it over the edge.

step 3
Season the outside of the bacon-wrapped backstraps with a little All-Purpose Spice Rub (to taste) for a little extra kick in the color department. At this point, they’re ready for the smoker.

step 4
For the cooking process, you need a steady temperature of 275 degrees F (140 degrees C).
step 5
Once the cooker is up to temperature add a chunk or two of pecan wood and place the backstraps on the cooking grate. It’s going to take about 1 -1 ½ hours of cooking but I highly recommend using an internal thermometer so you can keep an eye on the temperature as it climbs.

Combine Soy Sauce (1/2 cup), Molasses (4 Tbsp), Rice Vinegar (4 Tbsp), Brown Sugar (2 Tbsp), Honey (2 Tbsp), Garlic (4 cloves), and Fresh Ginger (1 Tbsp) in a microwave safe bowl.
step 7
Add Sesame Oil (2 Tbsp), Sesame Seeds (1 Tbsp), Scallion (1 bunch), and Jalapeño Pepper (1) to the glaze and heat for 2 minutes in the microwave on high.
step 8
Stir and heat for another 1 to 2 minutes.
step 9
When the venison backstrap hits 125 degrees F (52 degrees C), brush on the glaze and continue cooking until the internal reaches 130 degrees F (55 degrees C).
