I usually cut it in half long ways to clean out the inside. Then cut in strips like fajitas and skillet fry in a hot pan. Add some butter and onions, never throw a heart away now. Just as good as the tenderloins.
I butterfly and marinate. Generally I use Italian dressing. Then I put cheese and serranos in it and wrap it in bacon. For best results I smoke it until the bacon in rendered down. If I don't have time, grilling works as well. Get the bacon done and the cheese melted on the inside.
Once you do, you won't want to leave them behind. IMO it most closely resembles tenderloin in the texture/taste. Only downside is having to fully gut the animal.
I'm in the taco group. Clean it up, dice it up, sprinkle some taco seasoning, high heat sear in a pan and put on tortillas with pico, onions, cilantro, whatever you like and go to town.
