This stew is a great way to warm up on a cold winter day. It's also very easy to make. I just threw all the ingredients in the pot and let it simmer for a few hours. The beef was fall-apart tender and the vegetables were cooked to perfection. I serve

This stew is a great way to use up leftover beef. I made it with a chuck roast that I had cooked the day before. The stew was very flavorful and the beef was fall-apart tender. I served it over mashed potatoes and it was a perfect comfort food meal.
