This was good for an easy Sunday supper. I doubled the recipe so I would have leftovers. I pretty much stuck with the recipe, except that I used V-8 instead of tomato juice, and added some minced garlic and a beef buillon cube. Also, I followed one of the reviewer's tips and cooked it in my crock-pot. I will definitely make it again, but I will probably cut back on the beef and add some veggies, like carrots and green pepper for a little variety of texture. It's a keeper though, for sure!

Too much chili powder and I could only find the instant barley so it did get mushy.

We really enjoyed this dish. I added chopped carrots, used V-8 juice instead of tomato juice and substituted cumin for the chili powder. Also added a bay leaf. The left overs were wonderful on a rainy Sunday. Will be making this again.

Thank you! I've been looking for this recipe forever! I had the cookbook this was in, but it has been lost in moves or misplaced. I love the recipe and have missed it! I like to double or triple this recipe and put it in the crockpot to cook all day. Thanks for helping me find a long lost, loved recipe!

I've not had this since I was a kid. It turned out really yummy, just like my mom used to make. Only alterations were - I didn't have any celery so I used green pepper and I didn't have any tomato juice so I used a tin of chopped tomatoes and I made up some beef stock which I added as needed (every 10mins or so) to keep the stew moist while cooking.

A great starter for a great stew. I opted to add less ground beef and more barley for a healthier recipe. I also wanted more fresh vegetables, so I added some diced tomatoes and carrots and shredded cabbage. For a little more flavor, I added some cumin and left out the chili (we prefer the cumin taste to the chili). Great recipe!

This recipe was easy, quick and healthy. I used vegetable juice instead of tomato juice to sneak in some extra veggies for my family. I liked it because ist was easy and quick to prepare, my family liked it, and it was good for them.

Simple to make, uses very few ingredients, tasty too. I thought it tasted like "dressed up" tomato soup. My hubby described the flavor as spaghetti sauce... I won't make this again though, just wasn't suitable to our tastes.

My whole family loved this recipe! I added some cheese to each serving, and it was like a cheeseburger stew. Warm and hearty. I used 1/4 tsp of salt, and it could have used maybe a little spice, maybe try some italian seasoning next time. I will make this again- my family will insist on it!
