I'll try it with different veggies to keep it low carbohydrate and I will cube the venison instead of grinding it but it sounds delicious!

Vince...That recipe is missing the one veggie that makes stew what it is. Cabbage...Stew without cabbage is not stew...It's soup.

Yep, I agree...easy enough to add mate, also a little barley grain as well.

All the rest of the ingredients are great. Don't need the barley.

[I don't even like barley soup...]

I like barley but most people, me included, add too much.

today I was cutting up the deer shot earlier in week.
the shin meat got thrown into crockpot about 2 fist sizes,where small quantity of juice from corned beef sat waiting.
added 1 kumara about a fist sized kumara.
turned it on low heat.added teaspoon of garlic.
4 hours later added some silverbeet,carrots and brocalli,added some steak seasoning and vegemite..left it on low for another 2 hours. then removed most of liquid and whipped half a cup of flour in with it....stirred it well,left another 20 minutes and served
holy smoke it was good.

Elvis, you never make "biltong"?
Only a few ingredients (salt, black pepper, coriander, Worchestire sause and wine-vinegar), very easy to make and very tasty...

and you can keep your venison for long periods without fridge or electricity...

as for time needed: I do 1 day marinade and 5 days drying hanging in a cheap plastic box with 2 chinese ventilators (on 12 VDC - so I could do it in my car Smile

)

have done wallaby jerky...very similar thing...have small commercial dehydrator so could do all sorts...if remembered before cutting all the meat up!!!!

biltong tasts better than jerky IMHO
but I've never made jerky myself and I've only tasted biltong from own production. That also could make the difference...
