Moms Crockpot Beef Stew Recipe

Hello and welcome, today I am going to make a

beef

stew

and this is my mom's

beef

stew

recipe

. She used to do this quite often when I was a kid and I always liked her. She mainly did it during the winter months when it was cold. and I always liked her. She recently gave me this

recipe

and I tried it a couple of weeks ago and it tasted even better than she remembered, so today I'm going to show you how she makes it herself. We have the clay pot here. uh we're going to layer our ingredients this is how mom does it.

I have three carrots that I sliced ​​and they go on the bottom. Then I have three medium potatoes. These are Ukon golden potatoes. You can use whatever potatoes you want. Next, we have two ribs of celery and I have a medium onion diced, that continues next, let's see, garlic, it costs a clove of garlic. I don't have fresh garlic, so I'm going to use some of this. garlic out of the jar will be fine, I'm going to use it, I'll call it a heaped teaspoon because I like garlic, okay, I need a little bit of salt and pepper, I'm not going to salt it. too much, I can always add more salt later, uh, maybe it's a teaspoon, who knows, of pepper, however much you want, it will be enough for now.

I can always add more of that later too, uh, the buar sauce needs about a tablespoon of that, I don't. I'm going to measure it. I like wears, so I might add a little more. Next up here on my Batter Pro device, you see I have 2 pounds of stew meat that I lightly seasoned with salt and pepper. in a little bit, we cover it with a little bit of all-purpose flour that goes on top, okay, we have one more thing to add, this is a 12 oz can of V8 juice, we pour it right on top and we're done, we put the lid on. on high and I'm going to leave this for about 2 hours and I'll come back to check, then okay, we're back, our stew has been cooking in pot C on high for about 2 hours.

I didn't touch it this is what it looks like uh remember we layered all those ingredients now it's time to stir it up? I'm going to stir it up, let it all mix together, it really smells good, it's just my house smells really good right now, but uh, I'm going to try to stab one of these carrots with the fork and it's, oh, yeah, we've got a ways to go. tour, it is not ready yet. I'm going to go ahead and try our little broth or sauce whatever you want to call it. Let's see if it needs any seasoning, it tastes pretty good.

I think we just need a little more salt. I'm going to finish that off right now, maybe a little more pepper and I'm going to stir it again and let it continue. Cook on high, it will probably take a couple more hours. I'll stir it every 30 minutes until it's ready and I'll get back to you, uh, when it's ready I'll tell you how long it took, okay? We're back, it's been about four just over 4 hours and our beef stew is ready. I just tried a carrot and a potato and they're getting nice and tender and that's when you know the stew is ready, smell it. really good, we have a nice little sauce.

I'm going to turn off the crock pot, put the lid back on and let it sit for 20 30 minutes and come back to try it. Well, our stew. Now it's ready, I toasted some French bread to go with some butter and garlic powder and threw it under the broiler. This is how I usually serve with just a piece of crusty bread. Let's try it, see what it tastes like. I want to put a carrot in it, a little meat and a potato, see what it tastes like, that's really good and like I said, this is something my mom made when I was a kid and I know some of you are probably saying, "Well, I like peas." my beef stew or I like to add oregano to my stew do whatever you want you know add whatever you want that's how my mom did it so I stay true to her recipe and I always liked it since I was a kid.

And I still like it, so try it anyway. I hope you do it and I hope you like it. See you next time. Thanks for watching, bye.
