I've made and eaten a lot of bear. I trim as much fat as possible off a nice roast. Season with salt & pepper and brown it in a frying pan. Then place in a crock pot with onions, carrots, potatoes, and 3 beef bullion cubes with enough water to cover the veggies with the roast on top of them. Let it slow cook for 5 or 6 hours on medium.
It falls apart. Tender and tasty.
