For an even richer flavor, consider adding a bay leaf or a tablespoon of balsamic vinegar to the slow cooker. If you prefer a thicker stew, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water to form a slurry. Stir this into the stew during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Serve this delectable venison stew with crusty bread for soaking up the flavorful sauce, or over a bed of creamy mashed potatoes.
