This was easy and tasty. I didn't have wine so subbed beef broth. I got a late start I turned the crock pot on high while I prepped. Also browned everything well in a wok - the meat a little longer. Then boiled the broth before adding. It boiled pretty quickly and the meat was tender, gravy rich and glossy in 3.5 hours. Thank you for this recipe.

This is easier than my usual stove-top method, but more oniony. I really liked the quartered mushrooms instead of sliced and added them in without sauteeing first. I used round steak and it was disintegrating in 4 hours on high, so next time I'd try it for 5 on low. Served with egg noodles and DH's special garlic green beans. Thanks!

Wow! This is the best. I made it as written and thoroughly enjoyed every bite. It was so easy thanks to the crockpot and so delicious. I served it with noodles and homemade biscuits. Thanks for sharing. Made for PAC 2013.

Wonderful recipe! I used the fix ahead Beef Casserole Base http://www.food.com/recipe/beef-casserole-base-48835 since I had it in the freezer. My husband and I really enjoyed it. Next time I will use 1/2 the wine and more mustard.

This was great! I made the recipe as is, just added some thyme and white pepper to spice it up a bit. Delicious!
