slow cooker venison and vegetables with gravy
This is our favorite way to cook venison steaks or roasts. The meat is so tender that it falls apart, and there is no gamey flavor at all. The gravy is so delicious, you just might want to lick the plate! We prefer to use Yukon gold potatoes because they hold together well, and their texture is creamy and smooth. Don't skimp on the carrots; parsnips may be added also if you like.

How To Make slow cooker venison and vegetables with gravy
-
1Gather and prep ingredients. Lightly spray the bowl of the slow cooker with cooking oil spray.
-
2In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup all-purpose flour with one can of condensed beef consomme, whisking until no big lumps remain; add and whisk in one can of condensed French onion soup, one teaspoon soy sauce, and one teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. Set aside.
-
3Place roast in slow cooker; season the roast on all sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoky truffle seasoning. Set the slow cooker to high heat.
-
4Pour prepared soup mixture around roast in slow cooker.
-
5Place bay leaves, onions, carrots, and potatoes in the liquid surrounding the roast.
-
6Place lid on slow cooker; cook on high for at least 5 hours, stirring liquid with a spatula or wooden spoon several times as gravy begins to thicken. (Heat may be set to low after gravy has thickened, but adjust time accordingly.)
-
7Roast is ready when it's so tender that it's beginning to fall apart, and vegetables are tender-soft. Discard bay leaves.
