For an even richer flavor, sear the venison roast in a hot pan with oil before placing it in the slow cooker. This adds a delicious crust and depth of flavor. Feel free to add other vegetables to the pot roast, such as potatoes, parsnips, or celery. Adjust cooking time as needed. If you prefer a thicker gravy, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water. Stir the slurry into the gravy during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.

Mar 1, 2025I was able to use a roast directly from frozen! I did have to add about 2 hours to the cook time, but it worked well in a pinch.
