- What a wonderful recipe!! I added a bit of salt to mine and some turnip. The sauce was thick and very tasty. Next time I might add some fresh green beans. Great dish!!
- AMAZING BEEF STEW. tried this tonight and am in love. Added peas during last 15 min in oven. Would increase carrots, increase broth and beer by a cup each. Cooked liquid off fresh mushroom slices before adding them as directed. Don't use canned mushrooms. Guinness or any heavy beer works best.
- I made this stew last year for a halloween party with 60 people, and they loved it! They want me to do it again this year. The best stew I think I've ever had. The beer just really makes it special. Thanks for posting the receipe.
- This is great comfort food. The slight sweetness to the broth is wonderful. This is definitely a keeper.
- Made this today. We bought a huge sirloin roast, so I cubed 2 pounds of that meat. Left out the mushrooms and onion because I don't like them, and then used 1 tbps. of butter and 1 tbps. olive oil to brown the meat. Other than that - didn't change a thing - very flavorful! Thanks!
