Description

A hearty and tender venison backstrap dish slow-cooked to perfection in a crockpot, seasoned with simple ingredients for a flavorful meal.


Ingredients

  • 2 lbs venison backstrap
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cups beef or vegetable broth
  • Your choice of herbs (such as rosemary or thyme)
  • Optional vegetables (like potatoes and carrots)


Instructions

  1. Season the venison backstrap generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Place the backstrap in the crockpot.
  3. Add minced garlic, chopped onion, and optional vegetables.
  4. Pour in enough broth to cover the bottom of the crockpot.
  5. Sprinkle herbs on top.
  6. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the meat is tender.
  7. Serve with your choice of sides.

Notes

Check for tenderness towards the end of the cooking time. If the meat is still tough, continue cooking until it easily pulls apart. Fresh herbs enhance flavor better than dried ones.
