Venison Stew

Recipe #12044 | ½ day | 20 min prep | add private note

By: Lisa Hayward

This is a winter-time favorite. Nothing warms your chilled bones better than a hot bowl of thick, meaty stew. This recipe can also be used with beef.

SERVES 10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    In a medium frying pan, fry venison and onion, just enough to sear the outside of the meat.
  2. 2
    Put all ingredients, except the flour, salt and pepper in a slow cooker or crock pot.
  3. 3
    Allow to cook on high for about 5 hours.
  4. 4
    Add flour and salt and pepper to taste.
  5. 5
    Cook for another 5-7 hours on low.
  6. 6
    You can leave it on low for several hours over and above the cooking time, which will allow the stew to become thicker and the meat more tender to your personal liking.

    Turned out great. I must have tender venison, because it was done after less than 6 hours on high. I tossed the stew in the flour, salt and pepper, and browned it then. I doubled the other seasonings. No mushrooms for us. I put Bisquick "dumplings" on top and let cook for about 15 minutes at the end. Family liked it. I might try some red wine, instead of water next time to add some richness. Now I just have to beg some more venison off of my in-laws! LOL!

    Great stew! I coat the meat with flour, salt and pepper before browning though. That way you don't have to add it later to thicken the stew and you avoid that raw flour taste you ocasionally get when adding flour straight to a soup or stew.
