1 (24-oz) jar marinara sauce

Preparation

Stir in marinara sauce once meat is browned. Cover with lid. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce is hot and bubbling.

Note
-
Tip 1: If venison is ground with added fat, do not use oil in recipe. If a lot of fat is released from the cooked meat, drain the fat, and return meat to pan.
