SLOW COOKER BOEUF BOURGUIGNON
I'd wanted to make beef Burgundy ever since I got one of Julia Child's cookbooks, but I wanted to find a way to fix it in a slow cooker. My version of the popular beef stew is still rich, hearty and delicious, but without the need to watch on the stovetop or in the oven. -Crystal Jo Bruns, Iliff, Colorado
