Sweet Onion Venison Chili

It’s not every day that you change a recipe that a Chef puts together but Chef Wutsch is a pretty nice guy, plus he lives in Montana and I live in Oklahoma, so it would take him awhile to get to me!

Seriously the only thing I changed is, instead of using two pounds of ground venison, I replaced one pound with cubed eye of round. This gave each bite a little different texture and flavor. You can cube up any kind of wild game for this part of the recipe.
