Venison Leg Roast With Cranberry and Port Stuffing

Recipe #291408 | 1¾ hours | 10 min prep | SERVES 4 -6 , 4 -6 serves (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Erin Randall

My husband recently went hunting and brought home a deer. Now we have a freezer full and I have been searching for recipes - thanks to all of you who have posted Venison Recipes. Hubby and I came up with this idea ourselves and it turned out beautifully. We used a boned leg, but you could use any roasting cut, just butterfly it or create a pouch for the stuffing. You could use other herbs and flavourings, but the Cranberries and Port really compliment the Venison. Prep. time does not include the soaking time.
