Remove the venison from the marinade and pat dry. Let come to room temperature. Pat dry again. Season with salt and pepper.

In an ovenproof skillet heat remaining olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the loins and sear on all sides. Transfer to a preheated grill set over heated coals and grill for 5 to 7 minutes per side for rare meat. Alternatively, roast the venison in a preheated 450F oven for 7 minutes for medium-rare meat. Let meat rest, loosely covered with foil, for 5 minutes.
