Ingredients
- 2 pounds stew meat
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 yellow onion
- 6 lices Bacon chopped
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 11.2 oz bottle Guinness
- 4 tablespoons tomato paste
- 4 cups beef stock
- 3 carrots chopped
- 2 stalks celery chopped
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 3 cups potatoes peeled and chopped
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a dutch oven cook bacon over a medium high heat until desired crispness, remove and set aside.
- Season beef with salt and pepper.
- Add olive oil to dutch oven and brown the beef, remove and set aside.
- Add butter and onions, cook until onions are soft and translucent, 2-3 minutes.
- Add in flour and whisk to make a roux, cook for 1 minute.
- Pour in Guinness and whisk until there are no more lumps.
- Add tomato paste, beef stock, carrots or parsnips, potatoes, Worcestershire sauce, celery, bay leaves and thyme, stir to combine.
- Return beef and bacon to the pot.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to low, cover and simmer for up to 2 hours, or until sauce has thickened to a loose gravy and vegetables are fork tender.
- Taste and add salt and pepper as needed, remove bay leaves and enjoy.
Notes
- You may use chicken broth in place of beef. The chicken broth will mask the taste of the Guinness more.
- Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
