How thick are your venison steaks?

[WoodBow]

These bone in rear quarter steaks are super easy with a portable band saw or band saw in a butcher shop. Cook em rare on the smoker on high heat and they turn out nice for having guests for bbq.

Back strap and tenderloin I butcher about this thick.

Is the tissue between the muscles tough like this?

Sometimes a bit. Not bad on big Northern whitetail and elk. Coues deer and blacktails wouldn’t do them this way.

Moose, moose, whitetail, elk. Can’t find any good muley steak pics. 3/4-1 1/2” ish. When you’re cutting the steaks, cut them a bit thicker than you want because they’ll “spread out” a bit once off the whole muscle and then be thinner than you want. I also use a large victorinox curved breaking knife for better control on my cuts. Don’t use a small boning knife to cut steaks.
