Super Simple Beef Stew

 

 Howdy folks!

I hope you are having a wonderful week so far.

It has been rainy and on the cool side this week here in Texas.

I decided to cook some yummy beef stew for my family yesterday.

I thought I would share with y'all,

you know, just in case you need an easy stew recipe!

What's great about this stew is you can add just about anything to it.

I have made it for years and years and the fam still loves it!

 

 

Okay,

so here's what you will need.

 

2 lbs. stew meat

2 tbs. butter {to brown meat}

1 large carton of beef broth

4 cups of water

1 bag of petite carrots

6 red potatoes {cubed}

1 can stewed tomatoes

1 can green beans

salt, pepper, garlic powder, chili powder, worcestershire sauce, tobasco sauce

 

Heat a large pot over medium heat.

Throw in the butter, melt, add your meat.

Brown on all sides for ten minutes or so.

I add salt, pepper, garlic powder and chili powder while meat is browning.

I never measure, but be generous with your spices,

this is what will flavor your stew!

 

Once meat is browned,

pour your broth in.

Add about 1 tbs. of both worcestershire and tobasco.

{I add a bit more, we like a spicy kick to our stew}

Add your water and cook {low boil} for 30 to 45 minutes or so.

Next, throw in your carrots and potatoes.

Cook {low boil} for another 30 to 45 minutes.

{Until meat and vegetables are thoroughly cooked}

 

 

 Last, you want to add your stewed tomatoes and green beans.

I also add more of all of my spices at this time.

I never measure, just add a bit of everything.

Simmer for ten minutes and then serve!

 





Enjoy!

:)
