I usually either coat them in flower and lightly fry them or go the bacon, cream cheese, jalapeño route. Any new recommendations would be appreciated!

Trim off silver skin, pat dry, rub light coat of EVOO, season with kosher salt & cracked black peppercorn, sear over high heat, cook to rare. I would serve with chimichurri sauce

Fried is delicious, of course, but cooked rare is the best

I cut mine into medallions, Tenderize. Rub olive oil, then salt & pepper. Cook till rare. Best way I’ve had them. Do it at lease once a week. My wife, 6yo and 5yo tear it up.

Backstrap was genetically engineered to be sous vide. It's perfect.

Not knocking your preference, but I never understood wasting such a beautiful piece of meat with cream cheese and a bunch of other stuff.

Same. Not to mention a very healthy and lower calorie cut of meat. Why waste that with frying it or bathing it in a creamy sauce.

A nice lean filet with some veggies is a great meal

Pretty much this exactly. I might go a little lower on the temp but anything 120-130F is great just not more than that.

I serve with a gremolata that Steve Rinella recommends. Very tasty.

I just don't understand this sous vide craze. If you can't cook a decent back strap without par boiling it you probably shouldn't shoot the deer.

People that say stuff like this generally can't cook a lick.

This, I’ve tried all manner of things with backstrap. The only thing I go back to is salt/pepper and grilled/seared on high heat whole to rare with chimichurri.
