Ingredients
- 3 lices center cut bacon (chopped)
- 1 1/2 pounds chuck beef (trimmed, cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 2 tablespoons all purpose flour (or gluten-free flour)
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt (divided)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 ½ cups cremini mushrooms (halved or quartered depending the size)
- 1 cup shallots (chopped)
- 4 cloves garlic (sliced)
- ¼ cup tomato paste
- ½ cup dry red wine (*)
- 1 ½ cups beef broth
- 1 ½ cups carrots (cut in 1-inch pieces)
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat & render bacon until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to the slow cooker and remove most of the fat (nearly all of it), reserving the rest.
- Toss beef in flour, onion powder, ¾ teaspoon salt and black pepper. Brown the beef on all sides in two batches. Transfer the beef to the slow cooker.
- Add 1 teaspoon of the reserved bacon fat, mushrooms and remaining ¼ teaspoon salt to the pan; cook until mushrooms begin to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the shallots and garlic, cook until aromatic and soft; 2 to 3 minutes. Add tomato paste and stir to combine. Transfer to the slow cooker.
- Add red wine and beef stock. Stir to create a homogenous liquid. Lay fresh herbs on top followed by the carrots.*
- Cook on low 8 hours of high for 4 to 6 hours. Remove herbs before serving.

Notes
- *A dry red wine like merlot, pinot noir or cabernet sauvignon (or even a standard cooking wine) works. Consider that the dish will have tasting notes of the wine when choosing.
- Makes 5 cups.
- No Slow Cooker, No Problem!
- Use a Dutch Oven or a heavy oven-safe pot and bake in a 375F preheated oven for 2 1/2 hours, (check to be sure it has enough liquid after 1 1/2 hours) until the meat and vegetables are tender.
