Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Season the reindeer meat generously with salt and black pepper.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Sear the meat on all sides until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Remove the meat and set aside.

In the same skillet, add chopped onion, carrots, and potatoes; sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, and juniper berries; cook for another minute until fragrant.

Place the seared meat on top of the vegetables in a roasting pan.

Pour beef broth and red wine around the meat, adding bay leaves.

Cover the pan with foil and roast in the preheated oven for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the meat reaches desired doneness.

Remove the foil for the last 30 minutes to brown the meat.

Let the roast rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

Serve with the roasted vegetables and pan juices.
