Ingredients

• 3 Tbsp. olive oil
• 3 lbs. venison, elk or antelope
• 3 large onions, chopped
• 5 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1/2 lb. bacon, chopped
• 1 tsp. curry powder
• 1 can tomato soup, undiluted
• 1 1/2 cup beer
• 1 Tbsp. salt
• 1/2 lb. fresh mushrooms, sliced
• cooked rice

Directions

1. Place olive oil in large skillet. Cut meat into cubes about 1 1/2 inches square. Add to hot oil with the onion, garlic and bacon. Cook until all is richly browned, stirring frequently.
2. Add other ingredients except mushrooms, cover and simmer 50 minutes. Add mushrooms and simmer 10 minutes longer. Serve over rice.

3. This dish reheats very well and can be prepared a day ahead. No need to marinate the game before using. In fact, it is better not to do so.
