Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 lbs chuck steak cubed
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 yellow onion halved and sliced, large
  • 3 carrot sliced into coins, medium
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 heaping tablespoon tomato paste
  • 3 red skin potatoes cut into large chunks, medium size
  • 2 teaspoons thyme divided (substitute 1 teaspoon dried thyme, fresh
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 8 ounce Guinness Stout
  • 1 32 ounce beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • pinch sugar
  • ¼ cup parsley finely chopped, divided, fresh

Notes

  • You can peel your potatoes if you want, but I leave the skin on.
  • Ensure the beef is well-seared on all sides to develop the best flavor.
  • Try replacing the beef with lamb for a more traditional Irish stew recipe.
  • Use homemade beef stock or broth if possible.
  • Don't rush sautéing the vegetables. Let them sweat out nice and slow to develop their natural sweetness and depth of flavor.
  • Allow the stew to cook nice and slow over a low simmer. Don't let it boil.
