Old-Fashioned Beef Stew

Would make again! Follow the recipe, as described in the video version of the recipe. Use Short Rib No flour, instead sauté onion and a shallot Once cooked, add garlic, tomato paste, worchestshire sauce, herbs de province, bay leaf, and a few sprigs of fresh thyme. Cook the rest as directed. Add corn starch slurry if needed.

Just did beef broth instead of red wine & sprinkled some herbs de province in.

I cooked it for 4.5 hours, added better than bouillon roasted beef. Garlic salt, smoked paprika, onion & garlic powder, jalapeño, and creole seasoning. Delicious

We like our beef shredded in our stew so we cook it longer on the stove - about 4-6 hours total - and I add more broth/water to account for evaporation. I also add 2-3 thyme stems with the bay leaves, 1-2 tsp of Worcestershire and substitute balsamic vinegar. I think cooking it longer also helps dissipate the vinegar taste. I use both seasoned salt and regular salt. I also slice an additional onion super thin and cook/caramelize it in the pan after I cook the meat and before adding liquid. The onion adds so much flavor. This is a great cold/damp weather day food - warms the belly! I always double the recipe so we have leftovers.

make in Cocotte. Add shallots, caramelized onions, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, tomato paste, herbs, peas, mushrooms, garlic. Add carrots and potatoes sooner or cut them smaller.

I'm sure it's something I did wrong, but I really just didn't like this very much. I wasn't crazy about the broth/sauce. I think if I had omitted the red wine vinegar I would have liked it better, because although I used a decent quality red wine, the end result definitely had a vinegary tang.

Good, hearty beef stew that’s simple to make. Great for cold weather

I added 1 tablespoon of worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons of tomato paste and 1 tablespoon of better than bouillon (roasted beef) for a bit more flavor. This was soooo good.

added some Worcestershire sauce for extra flavor

I didn't use red wine. Substitute with more beef broth. Used the red wine vinegar. Used small yellow potatos (about 6) instead of russett potatos.. And instead of spices listed I used a Mccormick beef stew packet. Delicious!
