Carrol's Beef Stew

Submitted by CarrolJ

"This makes a meaty and rich beef stew. There is one ingredient which is very unusual in beef stew...the small amount of cabbage. It is there for flavor...and most likely no one will even notice it is there if you chop it very fine. Don't leave it out and you will be surprised at how good it is! Serve with fresh French or Italian bread."
