This one's a keeper. The only thing I did differently was at 9 hours, I removed the roast, added a little bit of thickener to the crock pot, tossed the sliced venison in the sauce, then let it cook another hour. I could taste the vinegar which wasn't a problem because I like tart sauces. However, I have family that don't so next time I'm going to try brining it in beer and cooking with apple juice instead.

I've been cooking and eating venison for as long as I can remember & this is the best recipe I have come across. I served it to friends who claimed to not like venison and their opinions were quickly changed. I have passed the recipe on to lot of people!

This turned out pretty awesome. It was my first time cooking venison, and I was worried about smell and gamey taste. The smell of this dish was wonderful, and I didn't notice any gamey taste at all. Very good!

Made for dinner yesterday. Wasn't really sure what to expect. After a few hours of cooking dd said,"what smells so heavenly?" All three kids and Dh loved this dish. Served with hard rolls. Great and easy recipe!
