Servings:

Ingredients

1 pound venison tenderloin
1 cup red wine
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 clove garlic, mashed
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped or 1 teaspoon dried and crumbled
1 tablespoon current jam or jelly (substitute grape)

Container:grill

Directions

PREP

1.5 hrs

COOK

15 mins

READY IN

2 hrs

Trim meat: remove all visible fat and most of the silver skin (translucent membrane). If loin has a long tapered end, curl the thin end back and toothpick it in place so it doesn't overcook.
Mix together wine, olive oil, soy sauce, garlic and rosemary; put into zipper-top plastic bag. Add loin and marinate, refrigerated, 1 - 2 hours, turning bag occasionally (longer if meat is from an older animal).
Start grill. Remove meat from marinade and pat dry. Bring to room temperature before grilling.
While grill heats, pour marinade into a small pan. Over high heat, cook down to about 1/2 cup. Stir in current jam or jelly. Strain, discarding solids.
Grill meat over direct heat, turning to brown all sides. Allow 6 -8 minutes per inch of thickness. Use an instant-read thermometer (125 degrees F is medium rare) or make a small cut to check doneness. Don't overcook or meat will be dry and tasteless.
Let rest on warm platter a few minutes to distribute juices within the meat. Serve whole or sliced into 1" rounds with the current sauce.

"I have made this quite a few times now with amazing reviews. It has become a special occasion dish. I have also used Bison with the same recipe. I used Cherry Jam instead of the Blackcurrant because I love cherry. This is even better the next day once it has been left in the marinade overnight. I have even frozen the left overs and they were amazing."
