SLOW COOKER VENISON STEW



Slow Cooker Venison Stew image

If you've got some venison stew meat in the freezer, here's a fantastic recipe to make the most of it. Full of rich flavors and hearty vegetables such as mushrooms, potatoes, and turnips, this rustic, comforting stew comes together in a snap thanks to your slow cooker. The recipe calls for the meat to be browned in a skillet before it is added to the slow cooker, but if you want to cut down on prep time, you can put the flour-coated meat straight into the slow cooker. (Browning makes the meat more flavorful but it's not an essential step.) The addition of blackberry jam might sound odd, but trust us: it helps thicken the stew and adds a subtle sweetness to the sauce that balances out the savory flavors of the brown ale and Dijon mustard. Serve the stew as-is with plenty of crusty bread on the side, or ladle it over hot cooked mashed potatoes or buttered egg noodles.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of venison: Chuck roast, shoulder roast, and venison stew meat are all good options for this recipe. Avoid using leaner cuts like tenderloin or backstrap, as they will become tough and dry when cooked in a slow cooker.
  • Brown the venison before cooking: This will help to develop flavor and prevent the meat from becoming dry. You can brown the venison in a skillet over medium-high heat, or in the slow cooker on the sauté setting.
  • Use a good quality bacon: The bacon will add flavor and richness to the stew. Look for bacon that is thick-cut and smoked.
  • Don't skimp on the vegetables: The vegetables in this stew add flavor, texture, and nutrients. Be sure to use a variety of vegetables, such as carrots, celery, onions, and mushrooms.
  • Season the stew well: Use a variety of spices and herbs to season the stew, such as garlic, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves. You can also add a splash of red wine or Worcestershire sauce for extra flavor.
  • Cook the stew on low heat for at least 8 hours: This will allow the meat to become tender and the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

This crock pot venison stew with bacon and mushrooms is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. The venison is tender and flavorful, the bacon adds a smoky richness, and the vegetables are perfectly cooked. Serve this stew with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles for a complete meal.
