Quick & Easy Elk Stew

From the Elk Ranch

1 kg Elk Stew meat

1 cup water

2 bay leaves

1 tsp rosemary & 1 tsp thyme

½ tsp savory

½ tsp black pepper & Salt to taste

1/3 cup hearty red wine or dark beer

3 Carrots

3 Sweet Potatoes (or white or red)

1 Onion

½ - 1 cup fresh cranberries

1 apple (cored, peeled, and chopped)

Place frozen elk stew, along with water, herbs & spices into crockpot or slow cooker in the morning.

Around 1-2 hrs before dinner, add chopped vegetables, apple, cranberries, and wine or beer!

Remember that Stew is nutritional and fun, add your own favorite herbs & spices, mushrooms, any other favorite root vegetable i.e. turnips, parsnips, try John’s Hot Sauce-Peach Vidalia to taste, and/or 1 tsp maple syrup.

Make it your own. Put it on before you leave for work and get the kids involved by letting them add the prepared fruit & vegetables after school, that’s how the apple ended up in ours.
