This is sooo good!!! I made this for my husband as he is a Guinness lover. I didn't think I would like it, but it was awesome. Even my one year old loved it! The Guinness makes a great gravy. I served this over garlic mashed potatoes.

So easy and so good! I used Guinness draught because that was what we had around and it turned out amazing. I served it over garlic mashed potatoes and it made a perfect meal. This will be a regular Sunday dinner at our house!

I made this for my Guinness loving Dad without much hope of liking it myself. I was surprised though because it was extremely tasty! I used stew meat and it cooked up extremely tender. I did have to add some flour water at the end to thicken up the gravy but that could be just personal preference of how we like our gravy. As suggested, I served with boiled new red potatoes and pickled beets. Dad and DH put there potatoes in a bowl with the meat and ate it like a stew. Mom and I ate them separately. Also made Guinness Beer Bread #55355 which rounded out the meal nicely. Thanks for a great recipe Ppaperdoll!!
