Description

A hearty and flavorful stew made with tender venison and nutritious vegetables, perfect for warming up on chilly days.


Ingredients

  • 2 lbs venison, cut into cubes
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups potatoes, diced
  • 1 cup carrots, sliced
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil


Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the venison cubes to the pot, browning the meat on all sides.
  3. Once nicely browned, add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions turn translucent.
  4. Stir in the tomato paste, ensuring it’s well mixed with the meat and vegetables.
  5. Pour in the beef broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
  6. Add the diced potatoes, sliced carrots, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine everything.
  7. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 120 minutes.
  8. Check occasionally to ensure it doesn’t stick and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  9. Once the meat is tender, serve the stew hot.

Notes

Marinating venison overnight enhances its flavor. Use fresh herbs for the best aroma.
