Buffalo Stew With Shitake Mushrooms Recipe
When cooked right, nothing comes close to the taste of wild game meat. Not only is it 50-70% leaner than conventional meat, but the animals are free-ranged and eat grass and grains instead of hormones, steroids and other animal parts. I buy my buffal... More

Ingredients
  • 1 lb. buffalo stewing meat, cubed (You can substitute beef, venison or ostrich)
  • 12 new potatoes, cut into quarters
  • ½ cup chopped onions
  • 8-oz. package baby carrots
  • 4-oz. package fresh shitake mushrooms, sliced, or 2 cups regular white mushrooms, sliced
  • 16-oz can whole or diced tomatoes
  • 14½-oz can beef broth
  • ½ cup flour
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper, or more to taste
  • ½ cup red wine

Directions
  1. Combine all ingredients except meat in slow cooker. Add meat. Cook on low 8-9 hours. Stir well before serving. (I started out on high for about an hour, then reduced the temp to low for another 6 hours or so).
  2. Because it cooks so low and slow, the otherwise tougher wild game meat melts in your mouth by the time it’s done. I have made this dish with buffalo, venison, ostrich and beef and sometimes combinations of them. It's always delicious.

Not many people understand good venison stew, but this sounds like you're one of them!


This was wonderful. Very flavorful. I cut the amount of potatoes in half and added 1/2 cup of pearl barley. I cooked it on high for one hour then turned it to low, as you did. After four hours, the barley had made it quite thick, so I had to add another cup of beef stock. I also decided to add the dumplings from my Crockpot Chicken and Dumplings recipe, so that required the stew cooking on high for the last 1/2 hour. The buffalo was fork tender. Really, really good. I'm going to freeze the leftovers instead of giving them away. :) A really great recipe. Thank you!
