Re: Beef stew

I amde a fantastic beef stew the other night - I usually make it from scratch, but I used the "McCormick Bag 'N Season for Beef Stew".

It's a packet that comes with seasoning (you just add water and flour) and a bag to cook it all in. I added carrots, onions, celery and potatoes in addition to the stew meat.

We had it over egg noodles and it was delish!!!!!!

Re: Beef stew

I made this stew on Sunday and it was A-MAZING!!

I didn't include the demi-glace and used bacon for pancetta and it was still the best stew I've ever had (I'm humble

Re: Beef stew

I made this...it was very good

two things I would do differently - is marinate the meat in some worcestshire sauce before cooking and add a little red wine after it has cooked for an hour or two

RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
1 large onion, halved and thinly sliced
2 medium carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
2 large potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
1 cup fresh green beans, in bite-size pieces
1 can of corn
1 pound beef stew-meat chunks
1 bay leaf
1 clove garlic, crushed
3 cups low-sodium beef stock
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Pepper to taste


1. Put everything in the slow cooker; stir to combine.

2. Cover and cook on the low setting for 8 to 9 hours or on high for 4 to 5, until the beef is tender and the potatoes are just fork tender.

3. Stir the stew once or twice as it cooks, if possible.

Makes 6 to 8 servings.


**if you want it thick with about 30 mins left of cooking, take a ladle full of the broth and combine in a small bowl with 3 tbls of flour - when it gets thick , throw back into the crockpot and cook for the remaining 30 mins. --I don't like it that thick so I stayed away from this , but it still was just as good!
