Beef Burgundy

This recipe is from best of the best from NEW ENGLAND cookbook. I have served this at several dinner parties and it gets complimented every time. It is simple to make and delicious. I usually serve with rice and a salad. One of my co-workers actually asks me once in a while to make for her and her husband, as she has 2 jobs, and not much time to cook. Enjoy
