I'm going to buck the trend here. While I love pan seared backstraps or marinated and grilled, putting a whole backstrap in a crock-pot with a coupla packages of onion soup mix, whole new potatoes and baby carrots is not "wasting" or "ruining" the meat. It is actually one of my favorite roasts and a Christmas tradition in my family. It's such a simple way to make an excellent meal that even someone with absolutely no cooking talent at all can make a meal of venison that rivals anything a experienced chef can create. Dump it all in before work, turn the crock-pot on low and when you come home it's ready to eat and perfectly done. Melts in your mouth and makes for some great leftovers.
