I ain't a master chef, but you might try this recipe. And, it's fairly simple.
1 lb. of venison, cut into cubes
3 or 4 'taters, cut into 1/2" blocks
1 or 2 carrots
1 medium onion, diced
1 large can of diced 'maters
8 oz of elbow macaroni
garlic powder, salt, pepper - all to taste
Slowly boil the meat about 15 minutes. Drain it. Add vegtables, cover with water and bring to a boil. Cook for 2 hours at a slow boil.
Next, add stewed tomatoes and macaroni. Let her cook about another 2 hours. The main thing is to make sure that the taters and carrots are done, the rest will take care of itself.
Oh yeah, don't forget to make a big pan of cornbread!!
Hope that you enjoy it.

I am gonna try this tomorrow with a little difference. I did a Boston Butt pork roast in the crock pot today - just about my favorite meal with cut corn, field peas, turnip greens and corn bread. I kept the juice and fat from the roast and am going to put the stew ingredients in it and cook it. Any thoughts on what this will do? I often put some pork fat - bacon, streak of lean, fatback - with venison to make it more moist.

Don't know why but I have a hard time following a recipe. Not only did I use the pork roast juice I added a rib of celery cut up into chunks. Didn't have any diced tomatoes - used them up on another dish last night - so I added Rotel - diced tomatoes with chile peppers. And I put in too many carrots and potatoes.
Cooking in the crock pot right now - I will report back!

Next time I swear I am gonna follow your recipe.
I put everything but the noodles in the crock pot and left, planning on getting back in time to put the noodles in. SEVERAL hours later after a dead battery in my truck and other problems I got home. Glad it was not on the stove - had that experience with a pot of string beans one time, involved the fire department, but that is another story.
Anyway, by the time I got home the meat had cooked to pieces and the vegetables were pretty soft. I took the veggies out and was going to add the noodles but the meat was just tiny pieces, and didn't seem nearly enough. I got out a pack of ground venison and browned it and added it to the juice with a cup of water, let it cook another hour then added the noodles.
It is really good, like meaty macaroni with potatoes and carrots, but not what I started out to make. My wife likes it too. Ended up with about twice what I expected when I started. We both had it for lunch today - she usually doesn't like stews and soups but ate a bunch of this.
I will try again - your recipe sounds good and I am going to follow it EXACTLY next time.
