Ingredients

  • 2-3 pounds venison steak
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion sliced
  • 1 large bell pepper sliced
  • 2 cups beef broth homemade or store-bought
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prep the venison: Season the venison steaks with salt, pepper, and dried herbs (thyme and rosemary). Set aside.
  • Brown the venison: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the venison steaks for about 2-3 minutes per side until browned. Transfer the steaks to your slow cooker.
  • Cook the veggies: In the same skillet, add sliced onions and bell peppers. Sauté for 5 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.
  • Make the sauce: Sprinkle flour over the veggies and stir well to combine. Slowly pour in the beef broth, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer to slow cooker: Pour the veggie and broth mixture over the venison steaks in the slow cooker, making sure the steaks are covered.
  • Cook: Set your slow cooker on low and cook for 7-8 hours. The venison should be tender and easy to pull apart with a fork.
  • Serve: Serve the venison steak with the veggies and sauce spooned over the top. Pair with mashed potatoes or rice for a complete meal.
