Beef Stew
This Beef Stew recipe is simple and straightforward that gives a satisfying meal. Cutting up boneless chuck roast into cubes can be less expensive than buying the package of stew meat for beef stew. I like to use a cast iron dutch oven to make Beef Stew.
1 ½ lbs beef cut in cubes
3 tbls oil
3 tbls flour
1 diced onion
2 cloves minced garlic
1 cup sliced mushrooms
4 cups beef broth or bouillon
1 cup V8
3 carrots sliced
4 diced potatoes
1 can green beans, undrained
You can use a boneless chuck roast or stew meat; cut beef into 1 inch cubes. and coat in flour. Heat oil in large pot and quickly brown the beef a few at a time and set aside.
When all meat is cooked, add mushrooms, garlic and onions to pot and sauté till soft. Stir in any remaining flour into juices and mix well. Add the meat, the broth and juice and simmer over low heat in covered pot till meat is tender or about 2 hours depending on size of beef cubes.
If the heat is a little too high you may have to add some water back during this time. Add carrots, potatoes and beans and simmer covered for 15 - 20 minutes more.
