ChileRelleno 7,071 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 This is my family pleasing venison stew. Due to having lots of family in the house for the holidays I had to make two crockpots full. Venison stew meat Potatoes Carrots Onions Celery Salt & Pepper Bay leaves Thyme Rosemary Garlic herb mix Flour Chop/cube all the vegetables for your needs, place in crockpot and season with two bay leaves (remove after cooking), thyme, rosemary and whatever you like. Sometimes I substitute frozen mixed vegetables and just chop the potato. Season meat with salt/pepper, dredge in flour and brown in a skillet, add to the crockpot. OK, this is where I deviate from the norm, dump on can each of the French Onion & Golden Mushroom soup atop the meat. Add water to just cover, mix well. Cook on Med for 6-7hrs, the venison will come out falling apart in your mouth. Money shots to come this evening. 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HB of CJ 1,263 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 How badly hurt was that pesky deer? Out here in Oregon if we are ham radio operators and if we have a CCP we can patch through to a phone line and tell the Sheriffs Office dispatcher we hit or observed a deer being hit by either us or others. If the deer is still alive but mortally injured we can obtain legal authorization to dispatch the deer. Shoot it. Then ... I THINK there is a state law that allows in cold weather or if you see the actual accident and you shoot the deer then you can throw it in the trunk or pickup truck bed and take it home with you. I suppose if the deer is not too badly dead one could simply process it and add it the aforementioned stock pot. I wonder if it would taste the same? Yumm yumm.

mancat 2,368 Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 the best part of eating it is remembering all the BS you had to go through to get the animal to that point. this year I dragged my buck up and over the better part of 2mi of rocky cliffs, shot about 9am and back to camp at 5pm. still haven't tasted him yet though. my favorite was a cow we split with my wife's grandparents a few years back. shortly before he was slaughtered he escaped from the pasture and I had to chase him down in boots two sizes too small for me, then he stepped on my foot. every time we took a bite of "cow" I felt satisfied, revenge is mine asshole 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ronin38 2,117 Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 You too, eh? Man, that sounds good! My friend in PA once hit/killed a deer, that caused almost $1500 damage to his truck. He used most of the venison that was left to make chili. When we had some for dinner, I told him that at about $150/lb, this was some damn good chili! He was not amused... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
