Ingredients

  • 1 2 lb. boneless deer roast
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 cups beef broth divided
  • ½ cup red wine
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 onion thinly sliced
  • 2 carrots peeled and diced
  • 2 medium Russet potatoes peeled and cut into cubes
  • 1 medium yam peeled and cut into cubes
  • Kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 300°F.
  • Coat the venison meat with salt and pepper.
  • Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  • Brown the meat to lock in the flavour (about 2 minutes per side). Set the roast aside.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add 1 cup of the beef broth, scraping with a wooden spoon to deglaze the bottom of the pan.
  • Add carrots, onion and garlic and cook for about 10 minutes or until onions are translucent.
  • Place roast in the centre of the vegetables. 
  • Add the potatoes, yams, remaining beef broth, red wine, rosemary and bay leaves. 
  • Season with salt and pepper, cover and bake in the 300° F oven for 2 hours.
