Looks good Olaf. So are you browning the meat, then removing it to make the sauce? Then adding back in?

How long are you cooking in sauce for?
Hi, yes, I brown the meat well , then take it out and caramelise some onions well, deglazing the pan a couple of times with a little red wine or beer , I add a bit of butter and add flour to make a paste stir it until it’s Cheshunt brown. Then I whisk in some dark stock and a bit of beer, and also some Logan berries or redcurrant jelly, some appropriate herbs such as thyme and bay etc , I make it a runny sauce so that it doesn’t dry out and over thicken during the cooking. Once done I put the joints back in And cover them well with sauce , put the lid on and into the oven at about 150 deg c for 2-3 hrs . If the sauce is too runny or dry you can take the meat out at the end and reduce that sauce or add a bit more stock and beer .
Kindest regards, Olaf

Pan roasted Roe backstrap with dauphinoise, tender stem broccoli and asparagus - fast food loving daughter wanted it as a 19th birthday meal, bless her.
The 3 other teenagers who came for lunch had never tried venison before - we have three new converts.

Away for a child free couple of days with good friends. Eat out or eat in? No choice as I love to cook.
Duck breast with creamed potatoes, creamed parsnips, plum sauce (made with plum halves and no Chinese spices!), caramelised shallots, steamed green beans and a gravy mostly made by reducing a stock from the carcasses with bay.
