Deer Roast in Crock Pot

jllipson

You can probably use meat of choice, but this is what I made today and it was DELICIOUS.

I had never made a deer roast before and searched online for recipes, then found similar items in my closet - like the onion soup I used was not in the recipies, instead they called for a large onion plus 1 pack dry onion soup mix... less work on my end because I didn't have to chop the onion...

Here's my recipe that I used tonight:

2-3 pound Roast (I used deer)
1 can Progresso French Onion Soup
1 can condensed Cream of Mushroom soup
1 pound baby carrots
1 tbsp. Soy sauce
1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp. Garlic powder
¼ tsp. Black pepper

Threw all ingredients into crock pot and mixed - turned on High for about 5 hours, then turned heat to low for last 3 hours.

1 Serving = 4 ounces meat, plus about 1.5 oz. carrots (approximate)

My husband is a big hunter so we always have wild game in the freezer, he uses a similar recipe for his roasts too. Only he uses 7-up instead of mushroom soup

Might need to try that one time.

Interesting. Sounds like something I'd like to try. The only way I've had deer before is deer summer sausage and I love that. I wonder if my sister has a recipe that she's planning to use for the deer my BIL got this year...

Please, please tell us more about 7-Up instead of soup. My fiance is a big hunter too, but this year's hunt was a bust (hunting in Southern California is REALLY spotty). He's planning a big, bank-breaking hunting trip to Colorado next year so I need to get some good recipies for venison stockpiled.

Hi, Im mrstoes's husband! I cook venison roast in a crockpot with two cups of water & one or two cups of 7 up. I put in a package of onion soup mix ( powder) & I slice up an onion to put in around the roast. It's awesome, has a really sweet taste to it.

I do my venison steaks & chops in a marinate of 2 tbsp of light oil ( sunflower s what I use), 2tbsp of soya sauce, 1 tbsp of worchester sauce, 1 tbsp of lemon juice, 1/2 tbsp of pepper, per steak or chop , fresh grated garlic to taste. Put all the ingredients into a ziplock bag,put in the fridge & turn every hr for 2-3 hrs. Then bbq to taste.... my kids & I love it and perfer it over beef steak anyday.

Another venison recipe I use is for tender loins, ( backstraps). I cut them into medalions, wrap them with bacon using a tooth pick to hold the bacon together, brush with bbq sauce & bbq or broil to desired taste.

For anyone with goose or duck a great recipe is to butterfly a breast, marinate it in soya sauce, red wine, or beer for a couple of hrs, sautee onions & red peppers, grate your perferred cheese, ( I just use cheddar). Stuff the breast with the cheese & sauteed veggies, wrap with bacon ( using toothpicks to hold the bacon on & to close the breast) and bbq, dont cook waterfowl past med-rare or it goes rubbery. I make this a couple times a yr for my non hunting co-workers & they love it, one refused to believe it wasnt steak. Enjoy.

Thanks for the information, I was just going to send her a message asking what you do for the deer steaks and such.

A similare favorite that we did on tenderloin - marinated in light Italian dressing overnight. Wrapped in bacon, then we cooked in a rotisserie for a couple hours. It was very tender and delicious. Might have to try it with your recipe. Thanks!

I miss deer sooo much! I grew up in Southern Indiana with a dad that hunted all the time. We always had deer in the freezer. It is actually a really nice piece of meat - healthy eating-wise.

Nothing to add other than I miss the deer meat. I live in Southern California now and I have no idea where someone would hunt here?!?
