Wild Game Crock-Pot BBQ


Oh yes, Another wild game recipe. Lets get real though, any recipe of mine on here that you read that has meat was probably made with wild game unless I specify its beef.

 This recipe is pretty basic and definitely easy. You normally see it just calling for BBQ Sauce over meat and let er' go for 6-8 hours. Which works great for beef or pork that has a nice fat content. Wild game is a very lean meat so therefore drying out can easily occur when not properly cooked. Using some beef broth along with BBQ sauce allows the roasts to cook in moist juices and still get that BBQ flavor we all love! Worried about a thin gravy rather than a thick BBQ glaze? Thats what they made corn starch for.... plus once you shred it all up and add it back it takes up a lot of the excess sauce...

If you don't have any wild game Feel free to use Beef, you can still cook the beef roast in broth and BBQ sauce for an extra juicy roast. This post is to help ones who only have wild game to cook with and successfully direct them to a properly cooked roast!

Great meal to come home to after trick or treating!!!!

OKAY! Enough talking about it... Lets do it! This is a great recipe to leave going all day and come home to a delicious meal waiting for you! Warm, hearty, how can you go wrong?



Wild Game Crock-Pot BBQ

4-5 Pounds of Roast
2 Onions chopped into wedges. 
2-3 Cups beef broth. (Use as much as you would like, depends on how much sauce you want)
2 Cups BBQ Sauce, Your favorite brand. I use Rich & Sassy Famous Daves.
2 Teaspoons Garlic powder

Add all ingredients to a crock pot and allow to cook on low for 6-8 hours. Once cooked take just roasts out and shred them up. If your remaining sauce is thin add some gravy flour, or corn starch... whisk up until consistency you desire and add your meat back to crock pot and stir up. Should be a nice thick glaze like sauce around all the meat. If you want more sauce at this point just adding more BBQ Sauce will work since your meat had already cooked in broth. 

Serve on a roll, over mashes potatoes, or on a plate with a drizzle of BBQ Sauce and some chopped onions, peperoncini peppers, or jalapenos. Treat as you would any BBQ meat!

If you don't have any wild game, feel free to use Beef. You can still cook the beef roast in broth and BBQ sauce for an extra juicy roast. This post is to help ones who only have wild game to cook with and successfully direct them to a properly cooked wild game roast!

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!

 Best wishes for a safe and fun holiday full of memories to you all from Crafty Honey Badgers! 

Isn't this holiday the greatest? Well every holiday is great in its own way, but independence day is different! You feel a pride to be an American and thankful for all the brave men and woman who have fought to keep it AMERICA! Plus, a hot summer day on the lake ended with some fireworks is pretty hard to beat!

Kids playing with anticipation for the firecrackers when night fall covers. Family gathering and catching up around a BBQ. People wearing red, white and blue with lots of cheer. Parades bringing communities together to celebrate our freedom. This holiday brings us all as one together to be proud of this great country we live in! For one day we all can agree on one thing and thats what a beautiful country we live in and how we are blessed in so many ways. Holidays seem to have that effect on people and thats what I love about them. Opinions separate us quite often but holidays bring a spirit from deep down in us that makes us look one another eye to eye. As a country we can wave our flags and rejoice in cheer for old glory. Our beautiful country the United States Of America.

So I say it again, we wish you all a cheerful, sunny fourth of July. May the fireworks shoot high and light up the sky above you and fill you with cheer! Whether your on the mountain staring at the stars, or down on the streets of your hometown celebrating with your community we wish you a blessed day!

Anyways what's a holiday without a great recipe? Heres a last minute save for a delicious side dish for any of you who may be running behind today! Fourth of July or not, This recipe is a great all american side dish with a twist that will please any hungry appetite!
