You’ll love how the ingredients in this stew come together and create such savory flavors.
Check out what my pals over at 12tomatoes had to say about this recipe:
“When hunting season rolls around we start to get really excited for all those hearty dishes we’ve been looking forward to all year long…. At the top of our list of favorites is this venison stew. If you haven’t tried venison before, you should definitely give it a shot, because it’s richer and leaner than beef and, while it does taste more gamey, we think it’s the perfect choice for a tummy-warming stew that’ll fill you up and instantly make you feel cozy and comfortable. Of course, you could always just use beef if venison isn’t your thing, but we just really, really love it and hope you will too!”
This recipe will certainly impress the hunter in your life.
