Nate’s Favorite Deer Recipie:
About 10 LBS of chopped deer. (Depends on how big your crock pot is!)
Potatoes sliced, and cleaned.
1 tart apple.
2 TBS olive oil
2 cups milk
Carrots,
Celery
Salt to taste
Sugar (about 2 TBS) or Honey is better.
Pepper (To Taste)
Cajun spice, or jalapeño peppers
Several fresh garlic.
Squirt Ketchup on top. (It seems to make the whole thing taste better)
The apple takes out the wild taste.
The milk softens the meat
The olive oil helps dissolve any fat, and makes it taste better.
The rest of the vegetables are simply whatever you like in your roast
The spices are simply what you like.
We have a cow, so we use fresh cow cream. I think it makes it better!
Cook in crock pot from 8-12 hrs, depending on how hot your pot is, and then serve over fresh brown rice.
Really good!!
Nate
That sounds really good, I'll have to try it in a few weeks!

a ?.
where do you get that the olive oil dissolves the fat since olive oil is all 100% fat. The good kind.
I never heard of that. I place some large cut potatoes to absorb extra unwanted fat in stews, etc. and then discard.
also a tsp of apple cider vinegar may compliment it also along with the apple to balance the sweet (sugar). The ketchup is adding that high fructose stuff.
also a light splashing of red wine would add another flavor depth to it all.
sounds good
having and using a fresh ingredient like the cream is a real treat.
dang dude! we normally cook 2-3 lbs at a time. a crock pot that will hold 10 lbs of meat plus fixins is a monster!
3 - 4 lbs venison roast
Potatoes cut in no less than 1 1/2" cross sections.
2 TBS bacon grease
Carrots,
Salt to taste
Pepper (To Taste)
Large onion
about 2" water so there is plenty of broth
Meat on bottom and fill pot with the carrots, potato's and onions.
When the meat starts to come apart by just using a fork, its done.
Don't harvest gamey tasting Mule Deer, they get that way by eating
bitter brush and such.

Hey Nate,
You and your family remind me of “Little House on the Prairie” and the “Walton’s” combined! And that’s a good thing.
You said:
“(Depends on how big your crock pot is!)”
Crock Pot, cripes you’d need a Cauldron to cook all them goodies in! Sounds good too.
Say hey to the family and the critters, er I mean livestock,
Have a great week 🙂
Jud
Your recipe sounds a lot like mine. I just add in a can of either cream of mushroom soup or a can of cream of onion soup, and a couple of stalks of celery.
Andy
Here's mine...
Venison roast
Onions
Potatoes
Frozen peas
Fresh garlic
Salt
Pepper
Hot sauce (just enough)
Throw (or lob) into Crock pot.
Cover with apple cider
Add 1/4 cup cider vinegar.
Turn on low.
Go to work, map like you love it.
Come home, serve with a crusty bread.
Rick
Alternately... cube the roast and call it stew.
Nate’s Favorite Deer Recipe:
OK, on the idea that one oil disolves another, if you drop used motor oil on an asphalt parking lot, it disolves the asphalt.
If you spray wd-40, on your greasy hands, it will act like a solvent, and help clean them.
A lighter solvent, will disolve a heaver oil.
Nate
BTW...
If you have a nice big cast iron pot with lid, it will make up nicely on a camp fire too!
Nate’s Favorite Deer Recipe:
So it's not really dissolving, as much as it's diluting.....
Sounds like a good feed Nate, what time is supper? 😉
Here's mine...
I have always found if you cook vension roast together with a pork roast both taste much better.
Not a hijack; just trying to tell a great story.
Here's a pic of the brother of a guy I work with - he fell out of a tree a few years ago while hunting and was paralyzed.
He and his brother hired a machinist to fashion a mount for his rifle - he uses a green laser to aim, and there is a mechanism to pull the trigger when he blows into his "input straw."
So far this year, the guy has already gotten his turkey AND his deer...

Very nice, Lamon! That's a man with a lot of heart!
As we move toward firearm season from archery season, please remember to strap in if you hunt out of a treestand. It only takes a second and may save your life.

Lol - I think you need to squint a little more my friend. I posted that pic, not Lamon.

I believe another crock of buck is on it's way to perfection.... as soon as my daughter gets up, and starts it!!

PS I fergot to add onions. Carmelized onions are great in it. (Nothing special, just what sort of happens to them, when cooked into the above pot)

LOL Newt...just till I need glasses.
