Slow Cooker Winter Beef Stew
Now that it is autumn, I have again taken out my slow cooker. I do that more often because it's a good thing. Not only because you no longer have to worry about it when everything is put in the pot, but also because you can develop the flavors of the meat and vegetables to perfection.
For example, in this beef stew, the steaks slowly cook until they are wonderfully tender in a broth beer sauce. Added are delicious winter vegetables such as parsnips, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, and leeks. The vegetables and meat absorb all the flavors and become tasty!
Winter Slow Cooker Beef and Vegetable Stew
This slow cooker stew is a real keeper and one that I will be making more often this winter. I served it with mashed potatoes with garlic because the stew already had a lot of vegetables; I didn't make anything extra. And the plates were all empty!
This dish is perfect to eat as an easy meal in the evening, but also to serve when you have a dinner party. You don't have to worry about it anymore.
So get started and enjoy this delicious beef stew with winter vegetables in a delicious sauce from the slow cooker. You won't get enough of it.
