Venison Stew

Ingredients

For 8 people

  • 8 ounce(s) bacon, medium dice
  • 2 tablespoon(s) olive oil
  • 24 ounce(s) venison leg, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoon(s) salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon(s) pepper
  • 1/2 cup(s) flour
  • 1/4 cup(s) onion, small dice
  • 1 teaspoon(s) garlic, chopped
  • 8 floz red wine
  • 4 cup(s) beef stock or broth
  • 1 cup(s) tomato puree
  • 3/4 cup(s) Yukon Gold potatoes, large dice
  • 1/2 cup(s) carrots, medium dice
  • 1/2 cup(s) rutabaga, medium dice
  • 1/4 cup(s) celery, medium dice
  • 1/4 cup(s) leeks, medium dice
  • 1 teaspoon(s) fresh thyme, chopped

Directions

Render the bacon in a heavy bottom pot until crispy; remove with a slotted spoon and reserve; add olive oil to the rendered bacon fat in the pot. Season venison and dredge in flour; add it to the pot with the onions, browning it well on all sides. If any oil remains, add flour to absorb and make a roux. Add the red wine and beef stock or broth, slowly stirring to prevent lumps. Add the tomato puree; bring to a simmer, cover and cook for 1 1/2 hour. Add Yukon Gold potatoes, carrots, rutabaga and fresh thyme; cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Add celery, leeks and reserved bacon; return to a simmer and cook until all vegetables are tender, approximately 15 minutes. Adjust consistency if needed with more stock and season with salt and black pepper.
