Steps
1
When ready to cook, set the Traeger to 375℉ and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.2
For the Cranberry Sauce: Add onion, parsley, sage, 2 cups cranberries, and beef stock to a cast iron sauce pan.3
Place on grill and allow to cook and reduce for 30 minutes stirring once halfway through cooking.4
Remove sauce from grill. Add contents of pan to a blender and puree. Strain through a mesh sieve while still hot. Mix in the butter and a 1/2 cup of cranberries, set aside and keep warm.5
For the Venison: set temperature to High and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes. Remove fat and silver skin from the meat, pat dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.6
Place venison directly on grill grate and cook 10-15 minutes or until browned. Reduce grill temperature to 375℉ and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat reads 125℉ or to desired doneness.7
Remove from grill and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Serve with cranberry sauce. Enjoy!
