Stew Recipes

[Diane in CO]

Does anyone have a great stew recipe? I have tried about 4 different recipes and can't seem to find anything that is really spectacular. If you have one that your family loves, could you share the recipe :bigear:

 

Thanks!

1 'tub' barbeque from the grocery

1 can chicken broth

1 can diced tomatoes

1 can corn (niblets)

1 can creamed corn

1 can lima beans (or other favorite veggie)

1-2 potatoes, diced

 

throw it all in the slow cooker on low all day or high for half the day.

 

hope you like it!

It is called a soup, but really turns out like stew.

Here's mine. This is one of dh's favorite meals.

 

Cut ~1 1/2 pounds of stew meat into 1 inch chunks. Dredge in 1/2 c. flour. Brown in vegetable oil (in small batches) over medium high heat, along with an onion cut into chunks. Remove to crockpot when browned. Deglaze the pan with 8 ounces of red wine, scraping up browned bits, heat to thicken, and add to the crock pot. Add chunks of rutabaga, turnip, parsnips, potatoes and carrots. Sprinkle another 1/2 c. of flour over all and mix up with a large spoon. Add 1 Tb garlic, pinch of thyme, cube of Knorr vegetable bouillon, and salt and pepper. Add 1 C. water and a bay leaf. Cover and cook in the crock pot on high for 6-8 hours.

 

Even better the second day, if there are any leftovers.

Though I use grassfed stew beef, not the round. And I don't measure, I just add what I want, which usually includes more wine and broth. I find that a stew recipe with some kind of tomato base and red wine makes it very flavorful.
