Ingredients:

1 pound of bacon
2 pounds of cubed venison
2 medium turnips, cut up
1 large can of Veg-All
1 (16 ounce) can of tomato sauce
1 onion, diced
Salt, to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper, to taste

Directions:

First, fry the bacon then use bacon drippings to brown floured venison meat. Put browned venison in a slow cooker and pour in the liquid from the Veg-All can.

Add the tomato sauce, the diced onion and cut up turnips.

Add water as needed to obtain desired consistency.

Cook in a crock pot 3 to 4 hours on high – or all day on low – until meat is tender.

Add Veg-All vegetables and bacon, then cook an additional 15 minutes.
