I did not care for this. There was no flavor and way too many onions. It was like onions in broth with a few pieces of meat in it.

Oh wow... This recipe is amazing!!! My fiance and I have never tried beef burgundy before, but we were both pleasantly surprised. He even ate dinner slowly, relishing every bite of this yummy dish (as opposed to practically inhaling his dinner). I think I browned the steak too long though. I had never browned steak before. Next time I think I'll brown it a little less than I did. But other than that, it was fantastic. I also made garlic mashed red potatoes and apple crisp for dessert. Mmmmmmm. I will definitely make this again and again and again!

This was pretty good, though not great. For some reason I thought that the sauce would be thicker and richer.

This dish was delicious! The only thing I changed was adding minced garlic per other reviewers and omitted mushrooms since I don't like them. I will definitely make this again.

As is, this rates a 4. I used canned beef broth (diluted with water as per the label), so with the 1 tsp of salt, it was way too salty. I had to add a diced potato and a can of tomato paste to take the saltiness away. I also used a lot of garlic per other readers' comments, and I used some baby carrots and celery. With my modifications, this is definitely a 5. I didn't have problems with the broth beeing too watery. I browned the meat in oil, then after it was browned I stirred in the flour. Once it was thoroughly mixed in, I then added the broth and liquid. It turned out a beautiful, rich brown. I'll definitely make this again!

I browned my meat and then put all the ingredients in the crockpot for 8 hours on low-delicious, especially when served with mashed potatoes!

This was wonderful! I made it for my husband for Father's Day and he loved it. I cooked the onions the same time as the meat and the mushrooms about 1/2 hr and added some garlic. FANTASTIC

The sauce and mushrooms were fantastic. The meat was not--ended up tough and overdone. I will be trying this again, but it may take some work to figure out what went wrong.

Because so many of you said this didn't have enough flavor I added extra beef broth (dry), onion flakes, 2 bay leaves and extra thyme - oh and don't forget garlic! When I added the onions and mushrooms I found a few tablespoons of balsamic vinegar made a great improvement - just the right fruity sweetness and tartness to go with the savory. Play with this recipe, it's a good base!

This was pretty good. I too thought it needed a little something and I had added lots of garlic and a little red pepper flake. Also my sauce never did thicken enough for us. I did brown the onions and mushrooms with the beef and flour. Served it over bow ties pasta, and both hubby and I were adding a lot of salt and pepper to taste.

I think there was a little too much flavor from the wine, would cut it in half, but it was really good.

Wonderful! I will definitely be making this again. I added a little more beef broth instead of wine (only because I was out of wine lol!)when I added the mushrooms and onions. I used a good quality Cabernet Sauvignon and I thickened the sauce with 2 Tbsp cornstarch mixed in some room temp beef broth. Served it over rice. Thanks for the great recipe Faith.

A great recipe that can be adapted for the crock pot. I cooked it on low for 8 hours and served it over mashed potatoes with green beans for my father's 81st birthday. He loved it as did the rest of the guests.

My husband has never raved about my cooking until I made this recipe! This is no joke, he actually licked the sauce off of his plate, he loved it so much!The only change I made was I put 2 tsps. of minced garlic in while browning the meat. I also ended up adding just a little more wine to cover. This recipe was to die for! Thank you for helping me make my picky husband happy!

My husband loved this, but I thought it was a little bland. I think the quality of the wine used probably wasn't that great - next time I think I would buy a more expensive wine to intensify the flavor. I will try again though because the beef was tender and delicious. Thanks!
