Super Delicious Venison Stew Recipes

THE BEST VENISON STEW YOU'LL EVER HAVE

Steps:

• Dice the venison into bite-sized chunks, being sure to remove any of the silvery sinew tissue. Leaving this on makes the meat tough.
• Add the olive oil to a large pot or Dutch oven and heat over medium-high heat.
• When the oil is hot, allow the venison to saute for 5-7 minutes or until the edges start to brown. Remove the venison from the pot and set aside.
• Turn the heat down to medium and add the potatoes, carrots, celery and onion. Allow the vegetables to saute for about 8-10 minutes, or until they begin to soften.
• Then, add the garlic, herbs de Provence, salt and pepper and cook for an additional minute before adding the tomatoes, broth and Worcestershire sauce. Then, add the venison back to the pot. Stir well and bring the stew to a boil.
• Once a boil is reached, turn the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and allow the stew to simmer for 1-2 hours until the venison is tender.
• Serve hot (is amazing with crusty bread).

A CLASSIC FRENCH VENISON STEW RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Put the venison on one side of a large baking dish. Put the onions, carrots, and celery on the opposite side. Sprinkle the salt, pepper, and the dried herbs evenly over the meat and vegetables.
• Combine the beef stock and red wine. Pour the mixture over the meat and vegetables. Cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours, or up to overnight.
• Remove the meat and vegetables from the marinade to separate bowls. Reserve the marinade for use later in this recipe.
• In a large Dutch oven or other heavy-duty pot, add the bacon and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it crisps.
• Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
• Pat the venison dry with paper towels. Toss the meat chunks with the flour. Brown the meat in the bacon grease over medium-high heat in batches if necessary, until golden. Replenish the pan with vegetable oil if needed.
• Return all the meat to the pot. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring continually until the meat and paste are combined, about 1 minute.
• Add the mushrooms, marinated vegetables, crisped bacon, and the reserved marinade to the pot.
• Cook the mixture, covered, on low heat until the meat and vegetables are tender, and the sauce has thickened, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Serve warm.
