Venison for lunch? Yes, — this quick(ish) crockpot meal cooks while you are in your tree-stand or toodling around working from home.

We used (mostly) thawed  2-lb venison roast set in the pot at about 6 am. Note: you can prepare the crockpot the night before and ask the first one up to put the meat in the crockpot (turning once to coat).

Use rice to complement and add steam or sauteed stir-fry-type vegetables.

At approximately 150* degrees F, the interior is still a bit rare and oh so delicious!

*My husband-the-adventurous says that 140 degrees F is sufficient, but I like it a bit more done.
