OLD FASHIONED BEEF STEW
My family loves to enjoy this thick and hearty bowl of tummy warmin' love. The original recipe comes from the 1970 "Hard Times Cook Book" beef and vegetable soup but has been officially "Mama'fyed" so much that it has become an entirely different dish. I hope your family enjoys this as much as mine does. It is wonderful served with some warm and crusty bread or biscuits or even a pan of warm cornbread. See the options at the bottom of the recipe too for MORE VEGGIES that are great additions. As always, feel free to make this recipe fit your family and their likes and dislikes. It always makes my day when someone tells me that their family/kids will now eat a new food that they would previously not touch after trying one of my recipes. If I can help your family eat healthier I am a happy Mama!

Steps:
- Brown meat in a large preheated and lightly oiled stock pot or dutch oven over med high heat until meat has browned on all sides.
- Add onion and celery and continue to brown for a few minutes, stirring often.
- Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute stirring constantly.
- Add parsley, bay leaves, undrained tomatoes and stock to pan and carefully scrape up any browned bits from the bottom.
- Bring all to a boil then reduce to simmer and cook for 2 hours or until meat just begins to get tender.
- Add potatoes and carrots and cook about 30 more minutes or until vegetables and meat are all tender.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. A pinch of sugar will be a surprising touch that will mellow any acidity from the tomatoes and really bring out all the flavors well. JUST a pinch--any more will make it sweet and strange. For the first time try adding just a few granules in in a bowl of the stew and see if you like it.
- THICKER STEW: Add a slurry of cornstarch and cold water to hot stew and cook to desired consistency.
- MORE VEGGIES: Try adding some fresh or frozen corn kernels, diced zucchini, shredded cabbage, fresh or frozen peas or any other veggies you like when you add the carrots and potatoes.
- NOTE: Do not let anyone eat the bay leaves! They can be removed before serving!
OLD-FASHIONED BEEF STEW
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- On medium-high heat, add the vegetable oil to a large heavy pot (one that has a tight-fitting lid).
- When it begins to smoke slightly, add the beef and brown on all sides. Do so in batches if necessary. Add the salt and pepper as the beef browns.
- Once browned, remove the beef with a slotted spoon or tongs and set aside.
- Add the onions and sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and add the flour. Cook for 2 minutes stirring often. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
- Add wine and deglaze the pan , scraping any brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. The flour will start to thicken the wine as it comes to a simmer.
- Simmer the wine for 5 minutes and then add the beef, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf. Top with the broth. Bring back to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook on very low for about 1 hour.
- Add potatoes, celery, and carrots and simmer, covered, for another 30 minutes, or until the meat and vegetables are tender. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Turn off the heat and let sit for 15 minutes before serving. Garnish with the fresh parsley if desired.

OLD-FASHIONED BEEF STEW
The original recipe comes from my Pressured Cook cookbook, however I've made modifications. It can be prepared in a pressure cooker, crock pot or on the stove top. The key is to use good quality beef and cook until it is 'meltingly' tender. Also don't take any shortcuts. . . follow the directions and brown the meat properly, it really does intensify the flavor. If you are planning to freeze a portion of this stew, cook only the amount of potatoes you need for immediate use, they don't freeze well. Passive work time is calculated using a pressure cooker. Additional time needed for crock pot or stove top preparation. UPDATE: Recently made in the crock-pot and instead of putting the potatoes and carrots in with the meat, I tossed them with about a tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkled with thyme and wrapped in aluminum foil; placed on top of the meat in the crock-pot. About an hour before serving, stirred the veggies into the stew.

Steps:
- On a piece of wax paper, mix together flour, salt, and pepper. Roll beef cubes in the mixture to coat. Shake off excess. In a medium Dutch oven, melt shortening over high heat. When very hot, working in batches so as not to crowd the pan, add beef and cook until brown. As each batch is finished set aside.
- Return beef to the Dutch oven, and add 4 cups boiling water. Stand back, as it will splatter. Stir, and add lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, sugar, onion, bay leaves, and allspice. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until meat is tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Add carrots, onions, and potatoes, and cook until vegetables are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 30 to 45 minutes more.

BEEF STEW THE OLD FASHIONED WAY
This is a from scratch, down home, richly flavored stew with no exotic ingredients. I've used blade steak, arm roast and chuck roast for this recipe. For the vegetables, I use a combination of fresh and what I have frozen from the previous season, but use what you have on hand. I'm adding a can of tomatoes as an option, though I don't use it. Also, I cook this from start to finish in my 5 quart stock pot. This is truly a base recipe that can be adapted to your family's like and dislikes. Feel free to make it your own.
