Game Stew With Cider and Apples image

I had this in a medieval knight's pub in Torquai ten years ago. The cider is not apple juice like it would be in the US but actually it's British alcoholic cider. Not Strongbow, though, but some sweeter cider with only 4 percent alcohol. For the game use any mix of rabbit, hare, partridge, pheasant and venison or if you don't...

This stew was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less chili powder.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my stew turned out really bland. I think I might have used too much water.

I'm not a huge fan of game meat, but I actually really enjoyed this stew. The apples and cider really helped to balance out the gaminess of the meat.
