    Cook it like deer or elk. It has no fat like the rest. Marinade or inject it with your choice. Tooth pick some bacon strips on it and cook it like any roast about 3 to 350. I would pull it when the IT hits about 110 or so. It needs to be med rare other wise like deer if you overcook it it will dry out and taste like s&%#.

    @laserdoc85 My marinade calls for 1/4c if Worcestershire sauce, but just seen I have none, u think I ca use some beef broth instead? It also has soy sauce, garlic, onion, salt pepper.

    I would use Dales or Moores steak liquid seasoning

    Beef broth should work fine. Mix a bit of soy with the beef broth and do a taste test. I would not inject with dales. I love dales but it is a bit salty. What ever you inject it with rub it down with salt and pepper and wrap it up with bacon. Or head out to get some Worcestershire sauce and the store. Just don't over do it

    My advice for what it's worth having never cooked moose, cut off any fat. Wild game fat is no bueno.

    Moose is so much like beef that I'm sure anyway you do a very lean beef roast will be fine. I've cooked lots of moose but only in the oven, moist heat. Never egged but I agree that med rare at most would be best. Moose fat is nothing like deer fat which is much more tallow like. I wouldn't worry as much about removing fat as I would with deer.

    You should find out where the roast is cut from. If it's rump or chuck you need to braise or moist cook somehow. If it's loin you can cook hot and fast to med-rare max.
