Ingredients

  • venison roast
    1
  • olive oil
    1 tbsp.
  • yellow onion

    sliced

    1
  • garlic cloves

    minced

    4
  • your favorite barbecue sauce
    1 c
  • beer or beef/venison stock
    ½ c
  • apple cider vinegar
    1 tbsp.
  • dijon mustard
    1 tsp.
  • salt
    ½ tsp.
  • pepper
    ½ tsp.
  • buns of choice

    for serving

  • pickles

    for serving

Directions

  1. 1

    Start by letting the roast come to room temperature for 30 minutes before you sear it (if you can). This helps create a nice crust on the sear you’ll perform by ensuring the meat heats evenly. Then, pat it dry with a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Next, heat a skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil. Once hot, sear the roast on all sides until a nice, brown crust has formed. Take your time – this could take 15-20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Then, place your seared roast into the bottom of a slow cooker. Cover it with the onions, garlic, barbecue sauce, beer or stock, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Cook for 8 hours on low or until the meat is literally falling apart. If it is too tough to pull apart, it needs more time. Shred the meat with forks.

  5. 5

    To serve, pull some out, place it on a bun, add more barbecue sauce, and top with pickles. Enjoy!

About this Recipe

Craving a truly satisfying BBQ venison sandwich that practically cooks itself? This slow cooker recipe delivers incredibly tender, flavor-packed venison barbecue with minimal fuss, becoming your go-to for hearty meals.

The slow cooker is your secret weapon here, transforming a venison roast into fall-apart tender pulled venison barbecue effortlessly. It allows the meat to slowly absorb the rich flavors of your favorite barbecue sauce, along with aromatic onion and garlic, creating a deeply savory and juicy filling.

Prepare for an incredibly tender, melt-in-your-mouth venison that's been slow-cooked to perfection. Each bite of this slow cooker venison barbecue is bursting with savory notes from the venison, complemented by the tangy sweetness of the barbecue sauce and a subtle hint of garlic and apple cider vinegar. It's a comforting, hearty dish that creates a fantastic aroma in your kitchen as it slowly braises.

While the total cook time is substantial, requiring 8 hours for the venison to reach ultimate tenderness, the active prep time is just 20 minutes, making this an ideal recipe for busy days when you want a delicious meal waiting for you at the end.

Feel free to experiment with your favorite barbecue sauce to customize the flavor profile, from smoky to spicy. If you don't have beer on hand, beef or venison stock works wonderfully to add depth. Serve on brioche, potato, or whole wheat buns, and don't forget the crisp pickles for that essential tangy crunch.

Perfect for casual weeknight dinners or a relaxed gathering with friends, these slow cooker BBQ venison sandwiches are best served immediately, piled high on your favorite buns with plenty of tangy pickles.
