Crock Pot Venison - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup carrot (cut into 1-inch pieces)
1/2 cup celery rib (cut into 1-inch pieces)
1 cup potato (about 4 medium, cut into rounds 1/2-inch thick)
2 onions (cut into wedges)
6 garlic cloves (slightly mashed)
3 lbs venison (roast, cut into bite sized pieces)
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 (2 ounce) package onion soup mix
1 tablespoon basil (dried and crushed)
1 tablespoon thyme (dried and crushed)
1 (10 ounce) can soup (cream of mushroom)
1 cup Burgundy wine (more, or less to taste)
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup water (or more Burgundy)

Preparation

Layer ingredients in crock pot in order listed above.
Cover and cook on low 10-12 hours, or on high 5-6 hours.
I used to add 1/2 cup brown sugar, and a small can of tomato paste, but decided, over time, I really liked it better without those 2 ingredients.
Serve with crusty bread and a robust red wine.
