Instructions: Sprinkle roast with salt and pepper, and dust with flour. Heat oil.

Brown the roast on all sides. Set aside.

In remaining oil, saute onions and celery. Return meat to kettle. Add cider (water may be substituted) and remaining ingredients.

Slow cook until meat is tender, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours, adding more liquid as necessary. If needed, thicken sauce with a little cornmeal.

NOTE: Wild game and domestic beef can be treated the same when stewing.

Because of the liquid, the wild meat will not dry out. So, if you
have no venison, try this as a beef pot roast.
