Make this easy Best Smoked Venison Roast on a pellet grill recipe with your deer roast! Don't worry about the tough texture of deer meat - this recipe will make it juicy, tender, and full of delicious smokey flavor.
Trim any excess fat off the roast and remove any silver skin.
Rub the deer roast all over with a light coating of olive oil.
In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the delicious spice rub.
Sprinkle the dry rub all over the roast. Make sure you cover all sides of the roast. Place roast in the smoker, directly on the wire rack.
Close the lid and smoke for 1.5 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F.
Turn the temperature to 'Smoke', and smoke for 1 hour. This gives it extra smoke flavor and an extra tender roast.
Remove the roast from the smoker, cover it with aluminum foil, and let it rest for 15 minutes. Place meat on a cutting board and slice it into thin slices.
Serve with your favorite side dishes. Enjoy!
Notes
Make sure your roast is thawed entirely.
Let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes before placing it on the smoker.
The longer it 'smokes,' the stronger the smoke flavor will be.
Garnish with fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
