Irish Stew

flour

salt

black pepper

lb chuck roast

vegetable oil

onion

garlic

rosemary

stout beer

Worcestershire sauce

beef broth

tomato paste

bay leaves

carrots

potatoes

thyme

In large zipper bag add flour, salt and black pepper.  Add the chuck roast and shake to coat.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large Dutch oven or heavy stockpot over medium heat. Working in batches brown the beef.  Add oil when needed and scrape the bottom of the pot.  Plate the beef as you go.

Add 1 tablespoon oil and cook the onions until soft and fragrant.  Reduce heat to low. Add the garlic, rosemary, and black pepper; cook for 1 minute while stirring constantly.  Add the stout beer and stir scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze it.  Add the Worcestershire sauce, beef broth, tomato paste, bay leaves and browned beef (that you plated).  Cover and simmer on low for 80-90 minutes stirring several times to keep anything from burning or sticking to the bottom.

Add the carrots, potatoes and thyme.  Cover and simmer on low for 40-45 minutes or until the carrots and potatoes are soft and beef is tender.  If the mixture becomes too thick add a little more beef broth or water.  Remove the bay leaves prior to serving.

Such an easy recipe to follow! Thank you for sharing this!

I made a vegan version of this in my slow cooker. I will have to try your flavourings by adding rosemary and bay leaves next time I make it.

soo hearty and comforting dish! We loved every single bite!

Prepared this stew for my parents, my step-dad is Irish and he loved it! Said the herbs gave it something extra :)

Now the weather is going to start getting cooler, this is the perfect stew to fill up on!

Yum, this sounds amazing! Pinning to try during the cold months!

I`d love a good Irish stew at home. I often see it on movies but thanks for this, I can make it on my own

Prepare this traditional rich, thick Irish Stew recipe on the stovetop or in the slow cooker for a hearty and delicious comfort food dinner!

butter

bacon, chopped

all-purpose flour

lamb

Guinness stout or dry red wine

red wine vinegar

brown sugar

kosher salt, divided

black pepper, divided

bay leaf

paprika

beef broth,

onions,

carrots,

mushrooms

parsley,

In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, sauté bacon in butter over medium heat until crisp and browned (about 3-5 minutes). Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Pat lamb (or beef) dry with a paper towel.

Place the flour in a bowl or large Ziploc bag and season with about ½ teaspoon of kosher salt and ½ teaspoon of pepper. Add the meat and toss to coat well. Remove coated meat from the bowl and discard any extra flour.

Sear meat in the butter/bacon fat until browned on all sides (about 5 minutes). Depending on the size of your pot, you may need to work in batches so that the meat can brown without overcrowding.

Remove the meat from the pot and add the Guinness (or wine) and vinegar. Cook over medium-high heat, scraping the pan with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits.

Add bacon and meat back to the pot, along with the tomato paste, brown sugar, garlic, remaining 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, remaining ½ teaspoon of pepper, thyme, bay leaf, paprika, and broth. Stir really well to completely combine. Bring to a boil; then reduce to a low simmer.

Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender, about 1 ½ hours. Add the onions and carrots and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Add the potatoes and mushrooms and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes more. Add more broth at the end to thin the stew, if necessary. Discard bay leaf; stir in parsley, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Ladle into bowls and serve. Garnish with additional fresh parsley, if desired.
