Ingredients

  • 2 tsp Olive Oil
  • 2.5 lbs Raw Stew Meat or Chuck Steak trimmed & cubed
  • 3 strips Raw Bacon diced
  • ¼ cup Flour
  • 1 ½ cups Dry Red Wine
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Black Pepper
  • 3 tbsp Tomato Paste
  • 1 Small Onion diced
  • 4 Cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 cup Baby Carrots
  • 1 cup Small Baby Potatoes whole or halved
  • 1 cup Mushrooms halved
  • 3 Springs Fresh Thyme
  • 2 Bay Leaves
  • 2 cups Beef Stock

Instructions

  • To a large raised edge skillet, sear the beef and bacon in olive oil until meat has nice caramelized edges.
  • To the pan sprinkle flour evenly among the pan and stir for 30 seconds, so the flour has a chance to absorb the liquid and create a slurry.
  • Add dry red wine to the pan stirring vigorously to scrape the bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • In a large crock pot, with or without a crockpot liner, dump the red wine meat mixture in.
  • Top the mixture with rest of the ingredients into the crock pot.
  • Give the contents a gentle stir, secure the lid and cook on high for 5.5 hours or low for 7.5 hours.
  • When done stir once again then garnish with fresh parsley as desired and serve butter noodles or mashed potatoes.
