Slow Cooker Squirrel And Liver Food

OLD FASHIONED SLOW COOKED LIVER, BACON AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Wash and slice the liver in to bite size pieces.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the flour and season with salt and pepper. Then add the liver and toss, making sure each piece is coated with flour. When done, take 3 tablespoons of flour and place in a cup and add a little cold water to form a paste. We will use this to thicken the gravy later. Set aside.
• Chop the bacon and slice the onions, mince garlic etc. and over a medium heat, fry off bacon until cooked. Use a slotted spoon and put the cooked bacon on a plate, leaving the bacon fat in the pan.
• Turn the heat up on the pan and add the liver slices. Carefully turn them until they are browned on all sides then remove on to a plate.
• Add the sliced onions, garlic and mushrooms to the pan. You may need to add a drop of olive oil if there is not much fat left from cooking the liver. Gently cook until the onions are soft. If using herbs, add them now.
• Add the bacon and liver back to the pan with the onions and mushrooms and combine. Then add the tomato puree and beef stock. Add the cup of flour water you prepared earlier and gently stir until everything is combined.
• For cooking on the stove top, place the lid on the pan and gently cook on the lowest heat setting you have for about 2 hours or until the liver is tender.
• For cooking in the oven, transfer everything to an ovenproof casserole dish and place in the oven at 300 F or 150 C for approximately 2 hrs 30 minutes.
• For cooking in the slow cooker, transfer everything into your slow cooker and cook on low for 5-6 hours.
• For those of you who would like to make this recipe in your Multi cooker or Instantpot, using the browning setting, saute as the instructions above and then add the broth mixture to the pot. Select MEDIUM Pressure and cook for 35 Minutes. Release the steam and serve!
• When ready, serve hot with some lovely mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables!
