I'm a big fan of everything bagel seasoning blends. I've tried several brands and enjoyed them all. We use it on freshly baked bread, seafood, pizza, salads, and even as a crust on grilled meat, like this backstrap recipe. The sesame seeds add cruch, and the garlic and herbs are a nice flavor boost.
Cook the roast to medium rare, about 130 degrees, then rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Ingredients
2-pound section of backstrap
1/2 cup everything bagel seasoning
1/4 cup honey
Marinade
1/2 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 teaspoons lime juice
1 teaspoon grated ginger
Cooking Instructions
Trim the backstrap well to remove any fat or connective tissue.
Remove the backstrap from the marinade and pat it dry. Drizzle all over with honey. Use your fingers or a spoon to fully coat the meat with a thin layer of honey.
Place the meat on a preheated Traeger grill set at 350 degrees. Grill for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on thickness of backstrap, or until the internal temperature reads 130 degrees. Remove from grill and allow the meat to rest, loosely tented with foil, for 10 minutes before slicing across the grain into medallions for serving.
