    Best way to prepare Venison Back Straps?

    A buddy of mine gave me 2 large back straps that I thawed out and want to fix for a small gathering tonight. What is a good way to cook these? I see a lot of white membrane covering them. Should I remove this like on a rack of ribs or will it soften and be edible?

    Angus Brisket?

    I went out looking for my first brisket Sunday. Walmart had packers. The smallest was 14lbs. It's twice the size of what would fit on a rack in my MES. They were select grade and looked nasty but I've never seen a brisket before. $1.86 a pound. I decide to go to a meat shop across town. They...
