Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup all-purpose flour
2 pounds bison chuck roast, cut into 3/4-inch cubes, or bison stew meat
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 (14.5 ounce) cans beef broth
2 cups cranberry juice or cranberry juice cocktail
1 ½ cups fresh cranberries, rinsed
½ cup chopped onion
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
2 cups frozen cut green beans
1 ½ cups chopped carrots

Steps:

  • Reserve 1/4 cup of the flour. Place the remaining flour in a resealable plastic bag. Add bison chuck roast cubes, a few at a time, shaking to coat.

Stir in 3 cups of the broth, the cranberry juice, cranberries, onion, thyme, marjoram, sugar, salt, and pepper. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 1 hour.
  • Stir in green beans, carrots, and celery. Simmer, covered, for 1 more hour or until bison and vegetables are tender. Stir the remaining 1/2 cup broth and the reserved 1/4 cup flour in a small bowl until smooth; stir into stew. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly; cook and stir 1 more minute.

This stew was a bit too heavy for my taste. I think it would have been better with less butter and cream.
