Ingredients:
- 1 large moose roast
- 2 turnips, peeled and cubed

- Aluminum foil

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 5 hours
Total Time: 5 hours 20 minutes
Preheat your oven to 325°F (162°C).
Servings: 6-8
Equipment:
- Roasting pan
- Aluminum foil
- Sharp knife
- Cutting board
Instructions:
1. Take your marinated moose roast, which has been sitting for a day in its own blood for tenderization, and place it in a roasting pan.
2. Surround the roast with the prepped turnips, carrots, and onions. Season the vegetables and the roast generously with salt and pepper. Feel free to add optional herbs like rosemary, thyme, or bay leaves for additional flavor.
3. Cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil to lock in moisture and ensure even cooking.
4. Place the pan in the preheated oven and let it cook for 2 hours before adding potatoes.
5. After 2 hours, add the quartered potatoes to the pan, re-cover with aluminum foil, and continue to cook for an additional 3 hours. The roast should be tender enough to fall off the bone, and the vegetables should be soft to the touch.
6. Once the roast is done, remove the pan from the oven and let it rest briefly before serving.
7. Serve hot, ensuring each plate has a generous portion of moose meat, a carrot, a potato, and a couple of turnips and onions.
Cooking Tips:
- Be careful not to over-marinate the meat, as this can make it mushy. One day is optimal.
- Cooking low and slow is key to a tender roast, so don't rush the process.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the moose roast has reached a safe internal temperature of at least 145°F (63°C).
