Deer meat
, also known as venison, provides hunters and their families with a lean alternative to beef and pork, but it's not always available. Deer can be hunted only during a specified season with the proper permits and licenses. Once killed, the deer must be carefully cleaned and treated for gaminess. Some cooks marinate venison in milk to remove or tame the gamy taste, while others use vinegar solutions. The best way to get deer meat tender is to cook it gently over a period of time. Slow-cookers are excellent for this.
Instructions
1. Spray your slow-cooker with nonstick spray. Place the sliced onions in the bottom.
2. Place the pieces of deer meat on top of the onions.
3. Stir together a moist mixture of your favorite seasonings, such as cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix and chopped garlic. Place dollops of the mixture across the top of the deer meat.
4. Cover the slow-cooker, and cook the deer meat for six hours on low.
