Okay, they don’t really say that. But silly titles aside, I made my first stew last night and I was pleasantly surprised with the result. Found the [recipe](https://www.reddit.com/r/slowcooking/comments/15ggl9/the_ultimate_well_my_favourite_beef_stew_recipe/) on this sub (thanks!). Halved most of it because of my smaller 4.5-quart slow cooker. I also didn’t put the vegetables in the foil. I like my vegetables on the firmer side, so I just added them for the last two hours or so. Worked out great. To be honest, the flavor wasn’t a knock-your-socks-off kind of experience. It was more subtle and just became more enjoyable after each bite. Definitely looking forward to the leftovers, and making this again soon.

Looks good! It’s always better tasting (to me) the day after. 😛

I made my first stew last week. I’m surprised by how easy it was and how good it tasted! My mom makes it better though
