- 2 tbsp. oil

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!
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.
