    Recipe



    Cut elk into 1" cubes. Melt butter and oil in a stew pot over low heat. Add meat and saute 5 minutes or until meat looses raw color. Add onions and garlic and saute for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in flour and blend well. Slowly stir in broth and bring to a boil. When boil starts to form reduce heat and simmer. Add orange slices and lemon juice. Tie bay leaf, cloves, allspice, peppercorns and parsley in a small bag of cheesecloth and lower into pot. Simmer until meat is tender(1 1/2-2 hours). Remove orange slices and spice bag and add sherry or madeira, orange rind and salt and pepper. Stew is best if made a day before serving and reheated. Serve with risotto or buttered noodles. Enjoy!
