Low Carb Crock Pot Beef Guiness Stew Recipes

GUINNESS BEEF STEW IN A CROCK POT

Steps:

• Put potato, carrot, and celery chunks in the bottom of crock pot. Top with 2 bay leaves.
• Season flour with a dash of salt, pepper and garlic powder and coat the beef with the flour mixture. Heat a couple of tbsp of olive oil over med-high heat in a large skillet and add 1 bay leaf. Sauté beef in batches, just until browned.(It took me about 3 batches in a 12" skillet). Add more oil to pan as necessary for each batch. Remove and set aside.
• Add onion and garlic to the same pan and sauté over med heat for a few minutes, then add about half the can of beef broth to deglaze, scraping up the brown bits on the bottom of the pan. (That's Flavor!).
• Add meat and onions to crock pot, top with mushrooms.
• Mix remaining beef broth with tomato sauce, onion soup mix, remaining seasonings, and add to crock pot. Pour in most of bottle of beer (whatever fits, I had a few sips left for me).
• Cook 8 hours on low heat. Stir in frozen peas when done, they'll heat up on their own.
• Serve with crusty French bread!
• *Tony Chachere's and Mrs. Dash are my "go-to" seasonings for everything. You can use your favorite if these are not available.

LOW CARB CROCK POT BEEF & GUINESS STEW

Steps:

• Brown the stewing beef in the olive oil, in a hot frying pan. Just brown the outsides.
• Combine the beef with the rest of the ingredients in a large crock pot (I use a 6 quart). Cook on low for 5 or 6 hours, or until the wife comes home (extra time isn't going to hurt it).
