This was last night's dinner. The venison was made in the crockpot and the green beans were cooked in the last 15 minutes in a skillet. Meal came together quite well. Yummy. If you want this hotter, use hotter chiles, not more chile. * Exported from MasterCook * Venison Roast w/Basil Green Beans Recipe By : RisaG Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Crockpot Game Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- Roast: 1 venison roast 2 cloves garlic -- thinly sliced 2 ripe chiles -- sliced onions -- peeled & quartered salt and pepper Green Beans: 1/2 lb fresh green beans -- trimmed 1 tbsp unsalted butter 1/2 red onion -- diced 2 cloves garlic -- minced 1 tsp dried basil The Venison is done in the crockpot, the beans in a skillet.
