Savory Beef Stew

- COOK TIME
- 1 Hr 9 Min
A couple secret ingredients set this stew apart from other traditional beef stews. The honey adds a touch of sweetness and the beer not only tenderizes the meat but it adds a perfect richness to the sauce.
What You'll Need
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2-1/2 to 3 pounds boneless beef chuck, cut into 1-inch chunks
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices
- 2 large onions, cut into chunks
- 2 garlic clove, minced
- 1 (12-ounce) can beer
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon steak sauce
- 2 teaspoons steak seasoning
- 1 tablespoon honey
What to Do
- In a large bowl, combine flour and beef chunks; toss until beef is completely coated.
- In a large soup pot, heat oil over medium-high heat and brown beef 4 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add carrots, onions, and garlic, and cook 5 to 6 minutes, or until vegetables begin to soften. Stir in beer, beef broth, steak sauce, and steak seasoning and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer 1 hour, or until beef is tender. Remove from heat, stir in honey until well combined, and serve.

For a special taste treat, rather than using just any old beer, try using Guinnes Draft in this recipe.

We're missing the point here. It's obvious that the solar system really does revolve around JimkKC222.

Just look in the spices shelf of your local grocery store. You'll find all sorts of dry spice blends that are marketed as 'steak seasoning'.

instead of beer simply add more beef broth to equal 11/2 cups or 1 or 2 beef bouillion cubes and 1 /12 cups of water The beer does give it a different taste

Thank you, everyone, for your comments. You were all correct that the beef should be coated with the flour. The instructions have been adjusted and are now correct.

common sense would tell you to coat the beef with the flour, or you haven't cooked too often. to the non-drinker, try O'Douls' no alcohol beer. some stores do sell single cans, or not you can probably get away without the beer. this sounds like an excellent stew, always looking for different variations, thanks.

do you have to use beer - it is hard to get just one can of beer when we are none drinkers.....would beef broth work ???

Yes, I'm sure you toss the meat with the flour before browning. It also will thicken up the liquids of the stew during cooking time. This sounds really good!

I think the stew meat is suppose to be coated with the flour before it is browned in the pan.
