Notes
- You can opt for a lean cut of beef and then chop off any visible extra fat.
- You can leave the red wine out and just add more stock if you prefer.
- The type of wine you use in this recipe is important. A cheap wine won't taste as nice, so we like to use a mid-priced Burgundy (which is where the name of the dish comes from. You could also use a Merlot.
- If the red wine flavour tastes a bit too intense when you first taste it, leave it for 15 minutes to allow the flavours to mellow a little. It will be fine resting in the slow cooker for a little while.
