    Tweak: NJSS2000 Something else:

    An excellent venison stew recipe for folks who do not like a "wild game taste". A slow cooker is essential. I recommend slow cooking for 5 hours, chilling overnight, and then again slow cooking for another 5 hours. This maximises flavour without making the veggies mushy. Also, additional flour should not be needed if the meat is first dredged in flour before browning.

    Wonderful... cooked as is, except added carrots instead of parsnips, and it came out perfect. Would make again! Thanks for the recipe.

    Review: vanessajbaca

    This is a good easy recipe for venison. Use whatever root vegetables you have on hand. I personally use a slow cooker on a low simmer, and leave it for several hours. It is quite good!

    I'm not a stew or venison lover, but my partner is and he went wild over this. Thanks so much Nancy!
