Cuisine: American
Servings: 8 servings
Calories: 275kcal

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp. oil
  • 2 lb. venison roast
  • 2 tbsp. A1 Sauce
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 bell pepper
  • 1 yellow onion
  • 1 tbsp. italian seasoning
  • 1 ½ tbsp. tomato paste
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • french rolls for servings

Instructions

  • Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat and add oil. 
  • Once the oil is hot, carefully add in whole venison roast and sear. Allow to turn a rich brown, 3-4 minutes per side. Repeat on all sides.
  • Place browned venison into the crockpot. Add sliced onions and peppers, along with A1 sauce, italian seasoning, and tomato paste.
  • Pour cup of water over top. 
  • Turn slow cooker on low for 8-10 hours or high for 6-8 hours.
  • Once done, remove the deer roast. Shred the tender meat with a fork and stir back into the pepper and onion mixture. 
  • Taste and season with salt or fresh cracked black pepper if needed.
  • Spoon onto sandwich rolls and enjoy!

Notes

Though not 100% necessary, searing the venison roast in a cast iron skillet before putting it into the slow cooker really does add a great flavor to the meat. It deepens the flavor of both the venison and the juices the dish produces and it's not a step I like to skip. 
This recipe can be made with beef as well, such as a chuck roast.
