Richardson Family Venison Stew 🍲

Richardson’s Venison Stew

1-2 pounds of venison diced

4 cups of water for your broth base if your don’t have a bone- in prefer a bone broth as much as possible.

One large onion

One large apple

Assorted vegetables, potatoes, rutabaga, squash, sweet potato, carrots, corn, peas, whatever you wanna add Vegetable broth, unless you have a bone in with the stew/broth

1 tablespoon of cinnamon

2 tablespoons of cloves

1 teaspoon of sage

Half a cup of Lea and Perrins sauce

2 Teaspoons of Tabasco

2 Teaspoons of black pepper

1 Teaspoon of salt

If you like it sweeter add half cup molasses- (my Grampa did born omit this)

Brown the venison with an onion and 1 teaspoon of olive oil and a dash of Lea & Perrins do not add any water and make sure the venison is padded dry before browning it as well. 🦌

Chop up all your vegetables 🥕

I love adding a turnip and a rutabaga. 🫜

I just gives it a bit of a sweet flavour along with a sweet potato as well. 🍠

I’ll add an extra onion sometimes as well, preferably a Spanish or sweet onion to the veggies and set them to boil as you’re browning your venison. 🧅

While the vegetables are beginning to boil down and cook, I add the cinnamon cloves and sage to the meat once it’s browned and a half a cup of water so that it’s not floating but mixed in with the venison and the onion add an apple to that at that point chopped and let it set aside until the vegetables are at a full boil.

Depending on my broth if I’ve done a bone broth with the Shank off the deer, I will add that now to the vegetables on boil.

Once the vegetables are full boil and half cooked, I then add all of the venison into it and any extra water. 😋

I need to to ensure I’ve got a good base.

This depends on how you think you like your stew I like my stew I bought a medium thickness, so there’s lots of broth and within a day or two usually that thickens up anyway.

This is an old family recipe. It’s a great stew for the winter time and it’s really good. 👍 🦌

My grandfather made this for his deer camp in the 40’s and it’s been passed down to me.

Served with fresh sourdough 🥯 and some 🍯 honey! 🐝

Enjoy!
