I've been making this beef stew for many years now and my husband loves to take it to work and I never get any of it! Simmer in a Dutch Oven for 1-1/2 hrs then add vegetables till tender. This recipe is also suitable for a crock pot just don't add more than 3/4 full of the ingredients! NOTE: Never tell them you found this...

Steps:
- 1. Brown stew meat in a little vegetable oil. Add McCormick's season all salt, garlic powder and onion powder to stew meat while browning. Add remaining ingredients. Set for desired time, 4hrs, 6 hrs, and 8-10 hrs. I cook mine for the longest time possible as it makes for a richer broth! This may be simmered on low for 1-1/2 hours in a DUTCH OVEN, before adding the vegetables. Once vegetables are added simmer an additional 20-30 minutes or until potatoes and carrots are fork tender!
- 2. When vegetables are tender...thicken broth, add 4 tablespoons of cornstarch to ½ cup of cold water. Mix till smooth and add to stew. Stir well until broth is thickened.
- 3. *The longer the stew cooks the more tender the meat and richer the broth.*
