If you found it in your backyard it is most likely a deer molar. Try this link, or do a Yahoo image search under "deer molar".

Yup, I would have to say deer based on your description. Not only do their molars have cusps on them on the top like ours do, but they also have grooves on the sides (2-3 major ones, depending on the tooth). Other critters have similar teeth (horses, cows, moose and other herbivores) but since you said it would be one found in wooded areas and backyards, I'd say white-tailed deer (or mule deer if you live out west).

if you mean the chewing surface of molars, that would be a grass eater, like a cow, horse or elephant

Herbivores. If you said how big, we might could get it to species.
