My step-daughters always refused to eat venison, so we had to come up with creative ways to disguise it. This very tender and savory slow cooker pot roast always had them coming back for more. It wasn't until years later we revealed the truth of the roast's origins! Serve roast, vegetables and gravy over mashed potatoes.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound boneless venison roast, thinly sliced across the grain
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon grill seasoning
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 cups beef broth
¼ cup butter
¼ cup flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Season the venison with garlic, grill seasoning, and chili powder. Place into a casserole dish, and pour in the beef broth. Cover the dish with a lid, and bake in preheated oven until the venison is tender, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Once the butter begins to bubble, whisk in the flour. Cook while whisking constantly until the flour turns a golden yellow, and the bubbling slows, about 10 minutes.
  • When the venison has finished cooking, whisk 1 1/2 cups of the broth from the venison roast into the flour roux, and simmer for 15 minutes, whisking frequently. Add the venison to the gravy and serve.

INSTANT POT® VENISON POT ROAST



Instant Pot® Venison Pot Roast image

Venison pot roast used to be a weekend only thing for me due to the 10 hours of slow cooking it took to get it tender. Then there was the guess work of when to add the veggies. If you added them in the beginning, they became mush. If you waited too long to add them, they were underdone and to get them done, the venison got overdone. Instant Pot® to the rescue! The end result is perfectly tender venison roast and perfectly crisp-tender veggies, all in 3 hours.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of venison. Chuck roast, shoulder roast, and rump roast are all good choices for pot roast.
  • Brown the venison before braising. Browning the meat helps to develop flavor and color.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid. Beef broth, red wine, and Guinness Stout are all good options.
  • Add vegetables to the pot roast. Carrots, celery, and onions are classic pot roast vegetables, but you can also use other vegetables, such as potatoes, turnips, and parsnips.
  • Season the pot roast generously. Use salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste.
  • Cook the pot roast until it is fall-apart tender. This will take at least 2 hours, but it may take longer depending on the cut of venison.
  • Make a gravy from the braising liquid. Thicken the braising liquid with flour or cornstarch and then season it to taste.

Conclusion:

Venison pot roast is a delicious and hearty meal that is perfect for a cold winter night. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Serve the pot roast with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.
