• In a large stockpot place a layer of potato slices to cover the bottom of the pan.
• Sprinkle on salt and pepper to taste.
• Cover the potato slices with a layer of the browned beef. Season to taste.
• Cover the beef layer with layer of sauteed onions. Add a bay leaf or two.
• Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used. Finish with a top layer of potatoes.
• Dot the potatoes with the remaining butter and then pour in beer and stock. You want half and half beer and stock, and you only want the liquid to just touch the top layer of potatoes.
