Philly Cheesesteak Beef Stew
Description
This stew begins by seasoning and flour-dredging chunks of chuck roast before browning them in butter and oil for a crusty exterior. Garlic, onions, green bell peppers, and cubed Yukon potatoes are lightly caramelized in the same pot before adding beef broth, thyme, and Worcestershire sauce. The meat is returned, and the pot is covered and baked low and slow to tenderize beef and meld flavors.
After two hours, sliced mushrooms are stirred in for additional earthiness and cook for an extra hour, ensuring all elements become tender. The resulting stew features succulent beef pieces with absorbed seasoning, softened vegetables, and a flavorful broth thickened slightly by the flour coating on the meat.
Serve the stew as a hearty main dish with crusty bread to soak up the juices. It can be prepared ahead and reheated, often tasting better after resting as the flavors continue to develop.
