This Slow Cooker Corned Venison is super easy, once the venison is corned! Only 5 minutes to throw it in the slow cooker and about 5 hours in the slow cooker! Everyone that has tried this corned venison recipe, can not even believe it’s venison! It is so tender and juicy! A perfect way to make another tougher cut of venison perfect!
I have been making this Slow Cooker Corned Venison Recipe for about 3 years. It is really a family favorite! Not only the family loves this, everyone who eats it begs me to corn their venison next year! A side business, perhaps?? Just before big son left for school in January, we had a huge Reuben feast with several of his friends!
Here is Kerri helping me cook the sweet potato chips we made to go with the reubens! I went through 3 venison roasts (about 7 pounds, prior to cooking), 3 batches of homemade thousand island, 2 cans of sauerkraut and 3 loaves of homemade rye bread!
The boys ate 3 sandwiches a piece, there were 4 of them! Even Kerri ate 2, the skinny little thing! I don’t know where she put them!!
Like I said this recipe could not be easier, once you have the venison corned! In the fall, I corned about 10 leg roasts, which can be tough, if they are not cooked properly. Once the venison is corned, I rinse and vaccuum pack them. Then I freeze them and take a few out when I want to cook them. Just let them thaw and throw them in the slow cooker!
Have you ever tried corned venison? I think probably not. If you have the chance to, you really need to give this Corned venison Recipe a try! You will love it! I hope you enjoyed the recipe today!
Enjoy! And have fun cooking!
This Slow Cooker Corned Venison Recipe is so easy! Tender and juicy with a usually tough piece of the deer!
- 3 lb corned venison (can substitute beef) I prefer round to top round
- 1 onion quartered
- 1 large carrot cut into 2 inch pieces
- 1 12 oz. bottle Guiness Stout
- about 1/2 c. malt vinegar
- water to almost cover
- 2 Tbsp. Pickling Spice
-
Add corned venison to slow cooker.
-
Add onion, carrot and Guiness to the venison.
-
Barely cover the roasts with water.
-
Start slow cooker on high, once the liquid is bubbling, reduce heat to low. Cook on low for about 5 hours (depending on the size of the roast)until venison is very tender. (About 200°F internal temperature)
-
The Guiness and malt vinegar are very important, I have tried this without them and the quality is poor! Add potatoes, rutabaga, cabbage and carrots to make corned venison and cabbage or slice for Reubens!
