BA’s Mushroom Beef Stew
The first words out of his mouth were
“Oh My God, Babe!!”
I will take that as five stars. Super easy to make, hearty and flavorful. I will for sure be making this again.
BA Notes, before starting
I cooked the brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes and carrots separately but I don’t see why you couldn’t throw them all in. I just choose not too because I’m not a fan over overcooked veggies and I like to give the dish a more complex flavor by seasoning them differently. Also,this was my first time cooking a roast like this in a crock pot. I cooked it for 8 hours on low, it could have cooked another two with no problem. So next time, I will put it in over night and let it cook.
Well, I wish I could tell you what type of meat I used but, I can’t. It was a really lean, inexpensive piece, so I might say a top round. In the end I guess it doesn’t matter and you can use whatever you like. This is what you will need to cook the beef in the crock pot;
- Hunk of meat (I used about a 3lb piece),
- 1 packet of dry onion soup mix,
- 2 small sweet onions,
- two cans of mushroom soup (I used low sodium),
- minced garlic,
- olive oil, parsley, black pepper and red wine.
