Instructions
1- Thaw the Moose Roast:
- Ensure the moose shoulder roast is fully thawed for even cooking.
2- Season the Roast:
- Generously coat all sides of the roast with Himalayan pink salt and ground pepper to enhance flavor.
3- Braise the Roast:
- Heat a Lodge Cast Iron Skillet over high heat. Add cooking oil.
- Carefully place the seasoned moose roast into the hot skillet.
- Braise each side for approximately 2 minutes, achieving a browned crust that seals in the juices.
4- Prepare the Slow Cooker:
- Coat the inside of a Hamilton Beach Crock Pot with cooking spray to facilitate easy cleanup later.
- Pour the can of Alaskan Brewing Co. White Beer into the crock pot.
- Add the SpringTree Pure Maple Syrup, Signature Farms Chopped Garlic, and the contents of the True Lemon packets. Stir to combine.
5- Cook the Roast:
- With silicone tongs, transfer the braised moose roast into the crock pot, submerging it in the marinade.
- Place the lid on the crock pot and cook on high for 1 hour.
- Switch the setting to low, and continue cooking for 3-7 hours, or until the roast is tender. Flip the roast once during the cooking process to ensure an even marinade absorption.
6- Resting the Roast:
- After cooking, remove the moose roast from the crock pot and place it on a serving plate. Allow it to rest so the juices redistribute, ensuring a tender texture.
