Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 pounds beef stew meat
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium onion, diced
1 can or bottle beer
4 cups beef broth, more as needed
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 to 3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 carrots, roughly sliced
2 parsnips, roughly sliced
1 small turnip, roughly sliced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, optional
Minced fresh parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat the oil and butter in a pan and brown the beef. Remove the beef from the pan, throw in the garlic and onions and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Pour in the beer, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, sugar, paprika, salt and some pepper. Then return the beef to the pan, cover and simmer on a low heat until the meat is very tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. If the liquid level gets too low, add more broth as needed.
  • Add the carrots, parsnips and turnips and continue to simmer until the vegetables are tender and the liquid is reduced, about 30 minutes.
  • If the stew is still too liquidy, remove a cup of cooking liquid from the pan and stir in the flour. Add the flour mixture back into the pan and stir. Simmer for 10 minutes until the stew is thick. The meat should be very tender; if it's tough, let it continue to cook.
  • To finish, add the parsley and stir through the stew.

Tips:

  • Prep your vegetables beforehand: Before starting the stew, wash and cut all the vegetables into bite-sized pieces. This will save you time and ensure all the vegetables cook evenly.
  • Brown the beef: Browning the beef adds flavor and depth to the stew. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and brown the beef in batches, ensuring it's cooked through. Drain any excess grease.
  • Use a flavorful broth: Instead of just water, use a flavorful broth as the liquid base for your stew. Options include beef broth, chicken broth, or vegetable broth. You can also add a cup of red wine for extra richness.
  • Load it up with vegetables: This stew is a great way to sneak in a variety of vegetables. Use a variety of root vegetables, such as carrots, potatoes, and turnips, as well as other veggies like celery, onions, and bell peppers.
  • Season well: Don't be afraid to season your stew generously with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices. Common additions include garlic, thyme, rosemary, and paprika.
  • Simmer for at least an hour: To develop the best flavor and tenderize the vegetables and beef, let the stew simmer for at least an hour. The longer you simmer it, the better it will taste.
  • Serve with crusty bread or mashed potatoes: A hearty stew like this pairs perfectly with crusty bread or mashed potatoes. Serve it up with a side salad for a complete meal.

Conclusion:

This crock-pot root vegetable and ground beef stew is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for a cold winter day.
