Beef bourguignon can be cooked a few different ways. I used to cook mine the traditional way - in the oven for several hours but the recipe was somewhat high maintenance. Over the years, I tried modifying my recipe so I could use my crock-pot without losing any of that beef bourguignon flavor. This is what I ended up with and the meat is so tender and so delicious you may never use your oven again!
