I love to use wild game to celebrate a holiday meal. Whether it is a turkey for Thanksgiving or a goose on Christmas, I always believe that having something I harvested on the table makes the celebration that much more special.

This will be my go-to for venison shanks from here on out. For me, there is nothing easier than dumping ingredients into a crockpot and leaving them. In its most basic form, this recipe could be venison shanks, ham hock, salt, pepper, and chicken stock.
