Slow Cooking Thursday is hosted by Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.
BEEF STEW

1 pound lean beef stew eat, cut into cubes
1/2 pound baby carrots
1 large potato, peeled and cubed
1 medium onion, peeled and quartered
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup V8 juice*
1/4 cup red wine*
2 tablespoons brown sugar*
1 tablespoons tapioca*

  • Spray bottom of slow cooker lightly with PURE!
  • Place the beef cubes in the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Layer vegetables over top of beef.
  • In a mortar and pestle, grind all the seasonings together to reactivate their properties.
  • Whisk together the wine, V8 juice, brown sugar and tapioca until sugar and tapioca is completely dissolved.
  • Pour this over meat and vegetables.
  • Cover and cook on low 5 hours, undisturbed.
  • DO NOT CHECK ON IT!
  • Serve Immediately.

*The tapioca, red wine and brown sugar make a really nice thick gravy consistency with robust flavor when mixed with the V8.

This sounds so good, I agree with Barbara though, the last one ingredient especially threw me for a loop LOL

Can’t wait to give it a try 🙂
