Thank you:)
Thank you
An awesome recipe! I just made it for dinner. I doubled the sauce and added more potatoes and carrots. I will make it again. A dinner for 8 and less than $4 a serving!
I have made this exact recipe so many times, it’s so good. My wife doesn’t like beef stew, she’s more of a pot roast Gal, but that just means more for me! Great recipe.
I’ve made this before, and as we speak, I’m making again. It’s delicious! Perfect for winter time.
Great recipe. This is the first stew I made in my first Dutch oven. Thank you
Great video! <3
Excellent recipe. I found a really good keeper. Thanks!
What I love about this tutorial is it's short, gives the necessary information and leaves the viewer to imagine and come up with their own each unique version. You can tell she's gone to school for this and has a great understanding in terms of teaching the viewer but letting each bring their own version
Won't 1hr simmering at the end make the potatoes turn to mush?
Thank you. Mush easier than the other videos I've watched and less dishes
dont use vegetable oil for gods sake haha omg. Otherwise great.
Your a life saver ❤️ this will be my first time making beef stew
I already knew how to make beef stew…But I tried this recipe and It was easier and the wine (which I never tried) made this stew way better than grandma's. Thanks for this tested recipe, my wife loved it!
I have the pot on the stove right now as we speak. trying it for the first time.
I've watched this video and used the method/timings before and it was gorgeous and so much easier than transferring it to oven, using up more electric. I'm doing it again today as it went so well last time!
Well this stinks. I went to the website for the recipe and the site was dead.
Oh my goodness what a yummy stew, just made it.
I started making this, then saw that I need broth. Now I gotta make broth before making stew. Better off making Carbonada, is easier and taste better
Do I let it boil for a min or so and then turn down to low?
Thank you. This was quick, easy and looks great! I’ll be making it this weekend.
My mil is coming in two hours and apparently was told I'm making beef stew so here I am.
This Stew with Mushrooms instead of celery is my best winter meal!
Thank you, It Was So Easy & Delicious Too !!!!
Nice ,but she fails to mention that you have to keep adding water for the low boil simmer,otherwise your boiling thick flour water. It does have nice flavor. I added Mrs dash to the pot because I didn’t have thyme,so it gave it an extra flavor boost which did a good flavoring.
Looks very good, thanks for sharing
Making this for dinner this evening. Thanks!
😋
Out of all the videos yours is the best and taste great – good instruction
this recipe kicks ASS!!!
This recipe video is gold. Thanks.
Can I use fresh tomato instead of the tomato paste added at 1:24?
Great! Instead of wine some fresh or a tin of chopped tomatoes will do the trick, instead of wine with a stock cube added .
However I’m going to try this recipe as shown, after all, if it’s a good stew why change it?
Such a high quality video, you even explain why you do the steps!😍
Simple and very tasty! Thank you very much!
My child doesnt like spicy food so im trying this out – halfway through the recipe and just tasted the broth – omgoodness! Its heavenly 😢 ive been so frustrated lately as my child wont eat my food eveb when i put only a pinch of chilli powder in it only. So im ecstatic i foudn this recipe and hope it turns out great. Talk about amazingly flavourful and want to keep eating it. Thank you for the video! 🎉
Wepon of choice hee hee

Tip any alcohol cooked is gone in any wine beer liquor leaving taste alone.
What is "stock?" what does that mean??

Just mopped up that last bit with a nice piece of crisp bread, no joke delicious easy to follow recipe, my family loved it. Thank you.
That actually was easy. Thank you.
I made this, and let me tell you that if I of all people can make it, it's easy.

Great tips and instruction. You rock! Thank you.
I used bourbon instead of wine and it came out phenomenal I would recommend it!
