Venison Roast
Grilled Venison Roast is a delicious and hearty meal. Smoky, tender and flavorful venison that is perfect to slice thin and serve on sandwiches.
We injected this venison roast with garlic and herb butter and coated it in our favorite dry rub for savory dinner that everyone loved.
Ingredients for Venison Roast:
- Venison Roast
- Butter
- Granulated Garlic
- Ground Rosemary
- Onion Powder
- Fine Sea Salt
- Dry Rub
How to Grill Venison Roast:
- Thaw roast completely if frozen. Pat dry with paper towels and place on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Melt butter, mix in garlic, rosemary, onion powder and salt.
- Use an injector to inject herb butter into roast.
- Pour remaining butter over the outside of the roast, rubbing all over.
- Sprinkle with dry rub.
- Prepare a grill fire to 350° using pecan or hickory for smoke flavor.
- Place roast over indirect fire and cook with the grill lid closed for about 45 minutes.
- Check roast using a digital thermometer, continuing to cook until roast reaches about 135 – 140°.
- We cooked our roast for about 1 1/2 hours total.
- Remove from grill to a serving platter and rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
- Slice thin and serve immediately.
How to Store and Reheat:
Store leftover roast in an airtight container or zip top bag in the refrigerator up to 4 days.
Serve thin sliced venison roast chilled on sandwiches or reheat in a skillet coated with butter or olive oil over medium heat, stirring until heated through.
How to Cook Tender Venison Roast:
When grilling a venison roast, the best way to ensure that it is tender and juicy is to cook it rare to medium rare. Allow the roast to rest before slicing. If venison roast is cooked past medium-rare it is going to have a more chewy texture.
Injecting garlic butter into the venison adds tons of flavor and helps keep the meat juicy.
More Grilled Venison Recipes to Try:
Once we tried the perfect grilled rump roast, we never made another slow cooker pot roast again. We applied the same method to the venison roast and the results were outstanding. It makes a delicious Sunday meal with plenty of leftovers for delicious sandwiches.
