Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes

Time 4h

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 pounds beef chuck, trimmed of excess fat and gristle, cut into 2-inch chunks
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Coarse salt and ground pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, such as safflower
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
2 celery stalks, sliced
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1/4 cup tomato paste
1 cup dry red wine, such as Merlot
1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 dried bay leaves
3 pounds winter vegetables, such as potatoes, carrots, turnips, and parsnips, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, toss beef with flour; season with salt and pepper. In a large (at least 7-quart) Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Working in two batches, shake off excess flour, and sear beef on all sides until browned, 8 to 10 minutes (use more oil for second batch, if needed). Transfer beef to a plate, and set aside (reserve pot).
  • Add onion, celery, and garlic to pot; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add tomato paste, and cook, stirring, until slightly darkened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add wine, and cook, scraping up browned bits from bottom of pot, until liquid is reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Return browned beef to pot. Stir in tomatoes, thyme, bay leaves, and 8 cups water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, 2 hours. (If liquid reduces too quickly, add a little more water.)
  • With tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer beef to a large bowl. Pass remaining contents of pot through a fine-mesh sieve into another bowl; discard solids. Return beef and strained liquid to pot; stir in winter vegetables. Simmer over medium-low, partially covered, until beef and vegetables are fork-tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours more, stirring occasionally.

4 cups beef broth, more as needed

Categories     Stew

Time 3h20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 lbs stewing beef
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 onions, chopped
3 potatoes, diced
3 large carrots, diced
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups turnips, diced
3 cups water
1 1/4 cups beef stock or 1 1/4 cups canned beef broth
1 (7 1/2 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon oregano

  • Cut beef into 1-inch cubes.
  • In a large casserole or Dutch oven, toss beef with flour.
  • Add remaining ingredients; stir to mix.
  • Bake covered in 325°F oven for 3 hours, stirring occasionally.

Tips:

  • Sear the beef in batches: This will help to brown the meat and develop flavor. Do not overcrowd the pan, or the meat will steam instead of sear.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor, color, and texture to the stew. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and peas.
  • Use a good quality beef broth: This will make a big difference in the flavor of the stew. You can also use a combination of beef broth and water.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour: This will allow the flavors to meld and the meat to become tender.
  • Serve the stew with a side of mashed potatoes, rice, or bread: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Beef stew is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter night. It is a hearty and flavorful dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. With a few simple tips, you can make a beef stew that is restaurant-quality.
