So far I have not been able to make a decent deer roast.
They taste good but getting it tender has been the elusive part.

Anybody have a good recipe? Cooking times/temps etc?

What about on the smoker?

Thanks
 
Brown it on all sides in a skillet with a little oil. Drop it into a crock pot set on high for 2 hours. Turn it down to low and let it cook all day.

Then you can add vegetables and beef broth and cook until vegs are tender. You may want to add a packet of gravy mix as well.

If you don't want the vegetables, simply cook the roast and add BBQ sauce.
 
Do the crockpot deal with a can of cream of mushroom soup and a packet of dry ranch dressing. Throw a few potatoes, carrots, and onions in for good measure.
 
Thanks guys.

I was hoping someone had a pulled pork style recipe for deer or perhaps some kind of Rolled roast that comes out more like roast beef.

Mine come out like roast leather football.
 
Put the roast, two bulion cubes & water in the crockpot in the morning. Cook it all day. Before you go to bed, put the ceramic pot the roast in the fridge. The next morning, drain the water and all that white wax junk. Put roast in crock pot with two cans of Cream of Mushroom soup, 1/2 cup of milk and taters. Cook that all day. It will be ready by dinner time. And you won't be able to pick the roast up with a fork.

Sometimes I like to add some peas and cooked noodles before serving

The problem with pulled pork and deer roast in a smoker is the amount of fat or rather lack of fat in the deer roast.

The smoker low and slow cooking melts the fat over time and that is one of the main things that makes the pork butt, beef brisket, etc so tender. You will have to add fat to the deer roast.
 
What we do with or roast is, set it in the crock pot,pour in some lipton onion soup,also cut up a few onions and let it cook all day, making sure the roast is under water the hole time!(don't let it dry out!)

Then take it out, and pull the meat from the white tissue that gives it the gamee taste.Take that meat and scatter it around a cookie sheet,then pour barbeque sause over it and set it in the oven. man it is some good barbeque right there!!
 
We tried this recipe this weekend in SC while out fishing:

Big Mike's Drunken Deer Recipe(don't know the original name, but that's who gave it to me and that's what I'm calling it)LOL

Neck Roast-thawed
Lipton's Cajun Seasoning
Dale's Seasoning 1
1 and 1/2 Sam Adams Beer (opitional to consume remaining half)
BBQ sause - of your favorite
Pillsbury grand biscuits (for those who's wifes turn out like hockey pucks)
& Monteray Jack cheese..

Pat dry the thawed roast
Rub lightly with Cajun seasoning
Place into crock pot
Add beer, drink beer
Add Dales for about an inch or little less into the crock
Turn on low and go fishing

Return in the evening(after having a dead battery and lousy fishing because of the cold snap)
Remove neck from crock and pull the meat off - it actually fell off it was so tender
Mix with favorite BBQ sauce to your liking

Now it gets good!!!!!!
Bake the biscuits, remove from the stove and seperate them into halves, reapply BBQ/pulled venison, cover with Jack cheese, then reheat to melt the cheese.

Serve with a little more BBQ sauce for dipping and ooh, some more beer

Enjoy!!

Forgot...we put in some potatoes, carrots, and an onioin but the Dale's turned them all brown and put a slight salt flavor into them which I would exclude next time..
