What a fantastic recipe & an "smaller" portion way to serve the hubby beef stew w/o a ton of leftovers! I DID cut this in half after reading reviews--hubby did eat a big portion but there was a small "side portion" leftover. I ended using 1 1/4 cups of broth & 1/4 cup of water, though--b/c I needed to make sure the veggies & meat were covered well--and I cut down on the veggies. used 1/4 cup carrots & about 1 cup potatoes. I added 1 more tbsp of flour at the end, and whisked it up to thicken a bit more. Mine cooked in about 5 1/2 hours & I enjoyed the ease of the crockpot. Thanks for sharing!!

I just realized I haven't reviewed this yet!I made this last week and when I got home from work,supper was ready...and was it ever tasty!I used a beef roast and cut it up into small pieces,it was amazingly tender.I did not have beef broth so I used onion soup mix/soup base instead and it worked great.I thought it might be too onion-y but not at all.This made enough for 4 people so I froze the rest for another meal.This is a great basic beef stew,just what I wanted.Thanks!

This stew is excellent, shapeweaver! I added an extra pound of stew meat and used quartered onions instead of onion powder and adjusted the flour appropriately. The meat is tender and there is no need to thicken the gravy as it is perfect right out of the crockpot! Thanks for the delicious stew, shapeweaver!
