This didn't taste like we expected. The beef was tender, which was nice, but the dish was more like a mild BBQ sauce (and, in fact, I ended up eating mine as a sort of open-faced sandwich on top of a warm roll). It didn't taste bad at all - it just wasn't what we expected. We probably won't be making it again.

This beef stifado was good, but a little to cinnomony for us. The walnuts and feta were a nice touch. It also seemed kind of thick, not that it bothered us, just unexpected, we would sooner have it thinner. If I make it again, I would cut back on the flour and cut the cinnamon in half. Thanks for sharing Miss Annie, it was a nice change.

I thought this was a pretty good dish. I really loved the walnuts and feta, I really think they made the dish. I did omit the sugar at the end and I served it all over rice. Thanks Miss Annie for a great crockpot recipe!
