The image above shows the Venison chopped into bite sized pieces and seasoned with Weber Steak Seasoning. Sprinkle a little bit of olive oil on the pan or you can use foil (as seen here) or parchment paper as a layer on the pan to make sure the meat does not stick to the pan, for a less mess experience. Be sure each piece of Venison is covered well with seasoning.

Directions:
- Remove silver skin from venison back straps and clean venison thoroughly.
