@rr2241tx Sounds delicious! I think I might add 1tbsp tomato paste to help those cherry tomatoes and thicken the sauce. My father-in-law used it in his Brass Rail stew and Julia also used it in her Beef Bourguignon but maybe the cherry tomatoes are enough. It is certainly stew weather around here now and this recipe has made my mouth water!

@rr2241tx Yum!
Have you ever made venison broth to go with it? My grandma did when I was younger. I recall it being a tricky craft, there's a fine balance in the cooking time to tone down the gamey taste or really make it overpowering.

@lottie I’ve never considered making venison broth. It sounds delicious though so I think I’ll wash out the big stock pot and give it a whirl. There’s a large pressure canner at the ranch and several cases of pint Mason jars so if I manage not to screw it up, I’ll can a bunch for use throughout the year.
