Ingredients
main
1 Pound Venison Backstrap Steaks
2 Tablespoon Traeger Prime Rib Rub
Salsa Verde
1/2 Pound Tomatillos, Husked
1 Jalapeño, Stemmed
2 Clove Garlic
1 Medium Yellow Onion
3 Anaheim Chiles
Juice Of 2 Limes
1/2 Cup Chopped Fresh Cilantro
To Taste Kosher Salt
For Serving
4 Flour Tortillas, Warmed
1 Avocado, Sliced
1/4 Cup Crumbled Queso Fresco
1/4 Cup Chopped Fresh Cilantro
Steps
Season the venison steaks with the Traeger Prime Rib Rub and let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 225℉ and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes. For optimal flavor, use Super Smoke, if available.
Insert the probe into the center of a venison steak. Place the steaks directly on the grill grates, close the lid, and cook until the internal temperature reaches 110℉, 30-45 minutes.
While steaks are smoking, make the salsa verde: Preheat the oven to 450℉.
Arrange the tomatillos, jalapeño, garlic, onion, and Anaheim chiles on a baking sheet. Roast until lightly browned.
Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender and add the lime juice, cilantro, and salt. Purée until smooth.
Remove the steaks from the grill and increase the temperature to 450℉. Preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.
Return the steaks to the grill and re-insert the probe. Sear until the internal temperature reaches 130°F for medium-rare, or your desired temperature, 2-4 minutes per side.
Remove the steaks from grill and let rest for 10 minutes (the internal temperature will continue to rise to 135℉).
To assemble the tacos, slice the venison steaks against the grain, then transfer to the tortillas and top with the salsa verde, avocado, queso fresco, and cilantro.
Great recipe to make if you just made yourself a pork butt and tons leftover. The flavor of BBQ with slow cooked pork and fresh herbs really bring a gourmet feel to the party. The GMG pizza oven attachment cooks your pizza perfectly in just a few minutes and will honestly blow away anyone you decide to share it with.

The argument for burgers and whether to use lean and fat ground beef will never get settled. Personally, I prefer the leanest I can afford. I also like to make two thin patties for a “double” rather than one thick one, but that’s just me. Everyone has a special way to make their burgers and we won’t stop you from doing your own thing. We just want to give your our take on burgers and we wanna see what you guys some up with. Their are so many possibilities for some beef a bun and some fixing and that’s what a hamburger is all about. PREP TIME 15-30 MINS IDLE TIME N/A HOURS COOK TIME .5 HOURS PELLETS Gold BLEND SERVES 2-6 PEOPLE INGREDIENTS: GMG Beef Rub Ground Beef Pepper salt Your Choice of Fixing HOPPED-UP BURGERS Here’s the good stuff: Mince an onion and a half slice of bacon. If you want, add some diced Ortega chilies. Knead these into your burger. You should cook this until medium-well to insure the bacon cooks thoroughly. If you make thick burgers, sauté the onion/bacon mix for a couple of minutes on your stove top before you mix it in with your ground beef. You can top the burgers with cheese during the last 2 minutes or so, and you can also toast your buns for about the same length of time. check out ANOTHER awesome IDEA FOR AN UNUSUAL GREAT TASTING BURGER IN VIDEO BELOW!!!!!
