Savoury Saturday- Grannny's Venison Stew

Our neighbour was given some fresh venison, but doesn't like it so we inherited it! At first I couldn't think what to make and then I remembered Granny's venison stew recipe. It's one she usually makes for a family meal with the boys in mind! Being a hearty stew that's served with mash potatoes and vegetables I usually associate it with being an Autumnal or Winter recipe, but it was just as tasty in the summer and it makes great freezer meals. It does take several days to prepare, so bare that in mind when menu planning.
