Irish Pub Beef Stew image

I make this stew at least 3 times a year-we love it! Feel free to add turnips if you like them. My DH doesn't or I would ;-) If you have a good amount of leftovers I like to chop it down a bit to use as a filling for pot pies.

Time 5h30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 lb beef-splurge on the cut if you can
1/4 lb butter
1 can(s) tomato paste-3 oz.
1 can(s) condensed beef broth, 10 1/2 oz
1 c water
1 bottle guinness stout
4 medium carrots, cut into 1 inch pieces
4 large potatoes, cut into chunks
4 medium onions, cut into chunks
2 stalk(s) celery, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 c chopped fresh parsley
1/4 c good cooking sherry
2 bay leaves

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 300F degrees.
  • 2. In a heavy Dutch oven (I use cast iron) brown the beef in the butter over medium high heat.
  • 3. Add the tomato paste, water, beef stock and beer, stir well.
  • 4. Add the rest of the ingredients and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring once.
  • 5. Cover and place in hot oven.
  • 6. Cook for 4 1/2 hours. Stir every hour-watch fluid amount and add additional water if needed. Keep in mind this is a thick stew, not runny.
  • 7. Remove from oven, remove bay leaves and serve with Irish Soda Bread and butter.
