Barb's Beef Stew

Cooking in a slow cooker makes the meat extra tender. A wonderful way to make beef stew.

id give this 3.5 stars if possible.

With the exception of the mushrooms, which i dont care for, we made this the same way. We let it cook for 10 hours, but found it to be quite liquidy, i used some instant potato flakes to thicken the stew up and that helped a lot.

I would say its a "solid" meal...its not going to blow your mind, but its good. We will have this again...the kids liked it to.

I was very surprised to hear that trooper57 had a thin stew! This stew definitely turns out very thick and stew-like every time, not even slightly soupy. That's partly why our family likes it. (Is it possible trooper57 left out that half cup of flour? I'm just stumped.) If you look at the picture, you can see how it usually looks. Anyway--I was sorry to hear that the recipe didn't turn out the right way for you, trooper57--I've made it a million times using this recipe, and it always turns out very thick. Just throwing that out there, as a bit of info for others who might use the recipe: it'll be nice and thick, don't worry! :) [I posted this recipe.]
