If I could give this recipe more than 5 stars I would! It's incredible! I haven't been able to find cream of onion soup but I've made it with cream of celery and cream of mushroom and it has been amazing either way! I also add about 1 lb of mushrooms and cut the water down to 1/2 cup to make up for the water the mushrooms add. I usually serve it over egg noodles and it always gets rave reviews and my guests always go back for seconds and thirds! Thank you for this deliciously easy recipe!!! It's a favorite in my house!

Very delicious! I didn't have steak seasoning or sage so I omitted those. Used one can of cream of mushroom soup instead of onion. I didn't have a roast so I used ground elk instead. Everything else was the same. Yummy! The hubby loved it!

Neither my husband nor I like stroganoffs very much but this was very good! Followed it exactly and served over rice. Will definitely make this again.

I used moose meat and it was great also. Used cream of mushroom soup and the taste was awesome! I need all the help I can get using up all the moose meat we have.

i used deer meat and did'nt have time to slow cook it, so i threw everything "except the sour cream" in a pan and simmered it for 2 hours then added the sour cream and simmered another 30 minutes. it turned out great. very tasty.

This was delicious, of course I had to make substitutions for what I had on hand... I used elk stew meat instead of roast, which turned out so tender! and I didnt have cream of onion soup so I used cream of mushroom and added extra onion. I was in a hurry and accidently added sour cream in the beginning,but it still turned out. I also threw in some mushrooms for fun. My husband added some johnnys seasoning when my back was turned, and although it did make it taste better, the recipe was fine without it.I will definitely use this recipe again, maybe next time without the substitutions!

it's o.k. not a knock your socks off like some of the other reviews implied. not a keeper for me. my hubby gets an elk almost every year and I've still not found any better way to cook it than in chili! sorry, nice try

I made this with cream of celery since I did not have the cream of onion. The flavor was excellent, but the meat was very tough, even after 8 hours of slow cooking. We had to cut it up and serve it like a roast.

This is excellent! I was cleaning out the freezer of my husband's deer meat getting ready for the new season (didn't have any elk) and ended up using some white tail chops and stew meat (abt 2lbs). I normally always follow a new recipe as written (and would never rate it down if I made changes and didn't like it!) but ended up making a couple changes out of necessity and LOVED the results! I couldn't find the cream of onion soup (have never heard of it either) so I used cream of mushroom. I also used beef broth instead of water and chopped fresh sage leaves instead of rubbed which I was out of. I browned the meat a bit before adding to the crock pot and deglazed the pan with the beef broth to get the browned bits and add more flavor to the dish. Yes, a tiny bit more work but it was SO good! I served it over rice and my husband and little ones loved it. I may try adding some sauteed/browned mushrooms next time... This recipe is a keeper!
