Categories     Venison

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 pounds venison shoulder (or butt roast)
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon cracked black pepper
5-6 large carrots
1 medium yellow onion
4 garlic cloves
1/4 cup olive oil
1/3 + 1 1/2 cups quality beef stock
1 Tablespoon onion soup mix
1 fresh rosemary sprig
2 Tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
6 medium potatoes (peeled or unpeeled)
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
3 Tablespoons flour
2 Cups Roast drippings and broth

Steps:

  • Generously season both sides of your thawed roast with kosher salt and cracked black pepper. Set it aside and turn on your oven to 250˚ F.
  • Peel and chop the carrots, slice the onion and peel the garlic cloves. In a large stockpot on the stove using medium-high heat, pour in 1/4 cup olive oil. When the oil is hot, lay down your onion rings and garlic cloves. Cook for 2 minutes on each side or until the onions are translucent and crispy brown edges are formed. Remove the onions and garlic and set aside in a large bowl.
  • Using the same method, sear your carrots for about two minutes per side. When the carrots start to show browning on both sides, pull them out and add them to your bowl of onions and garlic.
  • Make sure you still have some oil at the bottom of the pan before laying down one side of the seasoned meat into the pan. Place the roast in the stockpot to brown for one minute on each side before removing it to rest one more time.
  • Working quickly, whisk 1/3 cup of beef stock into the browned bits at the bottom of the stockpot and keep whisking until they are part of the stock. Turn off your heat.
  • Layer the bottom of the stockpot with the onions, carrots and garlic and top with the browned roast. Split the rosemary sprig in two and lay it on top of the meat followed by one tablespoon of onion soup mix per pound of meat. Also add the fresh chopped parsley and 1 ½ cups of quality beef stock.
  • Cover the pot and bake for 3 hours at 250˚ F.
  • At three hours, slide the pot out and carefully add the potatoes around the edge of the meat and on top of the carrots, onions and stock. Move the rosemary from the top of the meat and poke it down into the juices. Slide the covered pot back into the oven and bake for an additional 3 hours at 250˚ F.
  • When the six hours has ended, carefully remove the stockpot from the oven, take out the roast, and place it on a platter. Cover it with foil so it stays warm. Remove all of the vegetables and place them in a bowl and cover with foil. Strain the remaining stock using a fine mesh strainer or a gravy separator and pour it into a liquid measuring cup and set it aside.
  • To make gravy, add the butter to the same pot and allow it to melt. Whisk in the flour and form a paste. Allow it to cook for 1 minute and then whisk in your reserved stock and drippings. Whisk just until it is thickened and turn off the heat.
  • Shred the meat and serve with carrots, potatoes and gravy.

VENISON WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY ROAST



Venison With Mushroom Gravy Roast image

After growing up in a hunting heritage type of family, this recipe was adopted as a family favorite. While just about any cut of venison can be utilized, I usually choose the tenderloin, as that is easily the tastiest, and most desired piece of venison ever available. This is an easy dish as there are no special seasoning or marinating steps required. This recipe is for the natural venison lover! This dish can be served alone, or accompanied with sides of wild rice, potatoes of any kind (including mashed utilizing some of the already available gravy, baked, twice baked, or hash browns), corn, green beans, or anything else you would like. This is a very accommodating recipe that goes well with just about anything. You can dress this meal up for special occasions, or simply make this an everyday family affair. This dish will fit well into whatever type of event you would like, depending on what else accompanies it, and how it is presented. It is truly a great American heritage type of dish! Enjoy, and try to stay out of the way from those who will certainly be diving in for a refill of this dish (at the very least, they will want the recipe for it)!!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h15m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 -7 venison tenderloins (I use 4-6 tenderloin steaks approx. 6-8 oz. per steak... can be varied)
butter or margarine
1 yellow onion (cut into 1-inch sections)
1 large green pepper (cut into 1-inch sections)
1 large sweet red pepper (cut into 1-inch sections)
mushroom (thinly sliced, quartered, and halved)
1/2 cup green onion (chopped and separated)
2 (10 1/2 ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup

Steps:

  • Pan fry the venison (slowly with a low flame) in a lightly buttered pan until well browned. (I thoroughly cook my venison, and apply butter coatings to top sides to prevent drying the meat as it cooks. However, you can cook to your own preferences -- keep in mind this is a wild dish, hence my thorough initial cooking).
  • Add 1 tablespoons butter to separate pan to sauté following 4 ingredients (yellow onions through mushrooms). Sauté yellow onions in pan first, this will allow caramelization, and a full rich flavour of onions. After onions become tender, add the green pepper, red pepper, and mushrooms. Sauté all ingredients above until tender, and onions are slightly caramelized. Add 1/4 cup chopped green onions to sauté pan and simmer 1-2 more minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • After all ingredients are sautéed, remove from heat and place 1/2 evenly into a casserole dish creating a layer across the bottom of the dish. After tenderloins are cooked, remove from pan, and place on top of the bed of sautéed vegetables. Cover tenderloin with the remaining sautéed vegetables. Finally cover everything evenly with 2 cans of Cream of Mushroom Soup. The soups will create a wonderful gravy as it is cooked in the oven. Cover casserole dish with foil, and place into preheated oven. Bake for 45 minutes, or until gravy is slightly golden brown.
  • Remove from oven when finished and garnish with remaining 1/4 cup chopped green onions. Serve immediately to awaiting guests and family members!

Tips:

  • Choose a venison roast that is well-marbled for a more tender and flavorful roast.
  • Sear the roast in a hot pan before roasting to help develop a flavorful crust.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the roast is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the roast rest for 10-15 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
  • Serve the roast with a flavorful gravy made from the pan drippings.

Conclusion:

Venison roast is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The key to a successful venison roast is to choose a well-marbled roast, sear it in a hot pan before roasting, and cook it to your desired doneness. With a little planning and effort, you can create a venison roast that is sure to impress your family and friends.
