recipe

Carrots (fresh)

Step 1

Wash & peel the carrots. Cut them into 2-inch pieces.

Potato

Step 2

Wash the potatoes & cut them into 2-inch pieces.

Baby bella mushrooms (whole)

Step 3

Clean & cut the mushrooms into 1-inch pieces.

Yellow onion

Step 4

Peel & cut the onion into 1-inch chunks.

Beef (chuck, cubed)
Flour (all-purpose)

Step 5

If the beef isn't already cubed, cut it into 2-inch pieces. Add the beef to a mixing bowl & season it generously with salt & pepper. Add half of the flour & mix together so all of the beef gets coated in the flour.

Olive oil

Step 6

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef & sear it on all sides for about 8-10 min. Once the beef is nicely browned, add it back into the mixing bowl & set aside.

Step 7

Add the carrots, onion, mushrooms & potatoes to the same pot. Season with salt & pepper. Stir & cook for 4-5 min, or until the veggies begin to soften.

Step 8

Add any additional seasonings to the pot (we suggest onion powder, garlic powder & Italian seasoning). Stir to combine, then transfer everything to the base of a slow cooker.

Red wine

Step 9

Pour the wine over the veggies in the slow cooker.

Beef broth

Step 10

Add the beef to the slow cooker along with the beef broth. Add just enough broth to cover the beef entirely. Cover & cook on HIGH for 4 hr or LOW for 7 hr.

Step 11

About 10 min before serving, add softened butter & the remaining flour to a small bowl. Stir to create a paste, then add it to the slow cooker & mix. Let the stew keep cooking for 3-4 min, allowing the consistency to thicken.

Peas (frozen)

Step 12

Add the peas & stir to heat through. Remove the stew from the heat, serve & enjoy!
