Venison Stew

Ingredient List:

8 Lbs. Venison Stew Meat (1inch cubes)

2 Qt. Beef Stock

12 Cup water

8 Carrots (peeled & half coined)

8 Parsnips (peeled & half coined)

8 Turnips (peeled & sliced)

30 Baby Red Potatoes

*15 thin sliced

*15 rough chopped

3 Yellow Onions Caramelized (medium chop)

1 Stalk Celery (medium chop)

¼ Cup Chopped Garlic

½ Cup Thyme

¼ Cup Rosemary

¼ Cup Sage

2 TBL Tobasco

½ Cup Worchestershire

3 TBL A-1 Sauce

Roux

Salt & Pepper to taste

Bring Venison, Beef Stock, & Water to boil and simmer till meat is tender. When meat is tender add additional ingredients and simmer for another 30 minutes until vegetables are somewhat tender. At this point add Roux until desired consistency has been reached.

A real easy one:

Get some Vegetable Beef Soup Starter.

Brown up your venison stew meat. No oil needed - just drop the stew meat in the pot and start cooking. Once browned, add 1 1/2 times the water called for on the packet, and simmer meat/water for around 30 minutes. Add Soup Starter, simmer for another 30 minutes. Add some rotini noodles, simmer until noodles are tender.

Less rotini - more soup-like. More rotini - almost like a hotdish.

I do this one frequently when we are camping during duck season. Pretty simple and awful tasty.

Roux:

I generally take equal parts Butter to Flour. Slowly melt the butter till liquid form, add flour and stir well. I leave it on the heat and stir with spatula till it gets a brown tint to it. About 3-5 minutes. Make sure you completely cook the roux out once you add it to the stew. Otherwise you will end up with lumps.
