Slow Cooker Beef Barley Stew

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Sprinkle beef fairly generously with salt and pepper. Use a large skillet over medium-high heat to heat the oil and then brown the beef. Drain off fat and transfer to slow cooker.

Step 2

Add mushrooms, carrots, garlic, potatoes, onion, beef broth, wine, tomato paste, mustard, and thyme, and stir well to incorporate. Then stir in barley and add the bay leaf. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours. Then turn on heat to low and cook for 2 hours more, or until beef is tender. Serve hot, with fresh parsley sprinkled over the top.
