Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon beef bouillon Organic Better Than Bouillon or other
- ¼ cup dried onion flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon parsley flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper ground
- ¼ teaspoon celery seed
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (or 1 teaspoon mashed anchovy)
- 1 cup red wine or water
- ½ cup water
- 2-3 pounds beef cut into 1-inch pieces, tips or similar
- 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
- 2 Tablespoons flour
- 2 Tablespoons tomato paste
- 2-4 Tablespoons brandy (may substitute water)
- 1/4 cup cream (or up to 1/2 cup)
Instructions
- Mix bouillon, seasoning, wine and water. Stir in cubed beef and sliced mushrooms.
- If using a slow cooker cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-7 hours. If using a Dutch Oven, bake covered 3 hours at 300F.
- When meat is very tender, make a flour slurry by mixing 2 Tablespoons flour with 2-4 Tablespoons brandy or water whisking until smooth. Stir slurry into beef tips, along with the tomato paste. Stir in cream.
- If you want it slightly thicker or if you have some final preparation left, cover the beef tips, set the slow cooker on warm--or if using a Dutch oven, turn off oven and place back for 10-15 minutes.
Notes
- Evaporation will vary so feel free to add a little additional flour or water as needed for your gravy. But be sure to give it time to thicken before adding more.
- To omit the bouillon, use 1½ cups of strong beef broth instead of the wine and water.
