Add the cubed and ground venison and continue cooking for about 4-5 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the ground meat is no longer red. Add all the remaining ingredients except the beans and masa harina. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and cook uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
