I also do the flour, granulated (very strong) garlic, cracked pepper dredge. Throw your meat into this mixture & you won't need the cornstarch step. Even after adding 2 T fresh garlic & 2 bayleaves to step #2 I still find this recipe bland. My husband & kids loved it. The meat was very tender. I don't like celery so threw in a can of drained sweet corn.

GREAT recipe!!! This is my first attempt ever making stew. It came out delicious!!! I used 4 cups of beef broth, rather than the boullions. I also marinated the beef in a ziploc with some worchester sauce and 1 chopped garlic clove for about 1 hour. Since I'm not a celery lover, I replaced it with thawed frozen peas and a can of corn. I will be making this alot. Thanks!!

Good recipe but I made some chages. First, I dredge the beef through a flour/garlic powder mix then sauted in butter (rather then oil). I then added some worscheshire sauce,2 cups(1 can)of beef broth, 1 cup of beer and 3 cups of water(I needed more water as my stew was super thick and very salty). I used a bag of frozen stew vegetables - which had all the veggies required. I didn't use any cornstarch as mine was thick enough - probably from the flour used to dredge the meat. Next time will probably use less buillon then called for - Too much salt for me!!!

Wonderful and easy! I took the advice of others and dredged the beef in flour (mixed with garlic powder and black pepper) before browning it. I then deglazed the pan with red wine. I also decreased the amount of carrots and added a small rutabaga. All in all a fantastic stew.

This is a good base recipe. The cooking time leaves the meat extremely tender. I did find that I needed to add quite a bit more seasoning. I added extra corn starch as well.

I have searched and searched for this one again! Thankfully I found it today! I made it a month ago and it was mouthwatering! The meat was tender, the flavor excellent, and what a great cold weather meal!

Paula thank-you so much for this recipe - it was excellent! I did make a few changes. I tossed my beef in 1/4 cup flour, 1tsp garlic powder, 1tsp black pepper and pinch of salt before frying (because I added pepper here I didn't add it with the other spices). I used red potatoes with the skin on (I find they don't go mushy no matter how long you cook em') and 5tsp of cornstarsh. I found 5 tsp of cornstarsh still only produced a soup like consistancy - next time (and there will be many more) I will use closer to 3 tablespoons. This was such a tasty recipe - the cooking time - perfect! The beef - so tender! Excellent recipe! Perfect for a cold winters night!

It was okay stew. It didn't have any pizzaz though. It could have definately used more spices in it. If we try it again we will be putting in a variety for sure.

This was really great! I, too, added extra cornstarch; I also used the Better than Boulion and floured the beef before cooking in olive oil. I don't usually cook with dried Rosemary...not a big fan of the "stick" texture! But this was definitely tasty and will be made again & again.

The broth wasn't very thick but the flavor was great! It makes a nice big pot of stew and I'll be making it again because my husband actually took it to work for lunch the day after I made it (and that's saying something since he's not a leftover eater!)

A really good recipe! Will go in our favorites. We thought it would be better if the broth were thicker. Maybe we could reduce the water 1/2 to 1 cup less, next time? We will definately make it again!

This was great! This is wonderfull and doesn't take nearly as much time as the other recipes for beef stew take, and the beef is just as tender. Before I browned my meat I covered it in Garlic powder and crushed pepper. I also dredged it in flour. As previous reviewers did, I added about 4 teaspoons of cornstarch and water. Mine finished cooking before the 2 hours was up...about 1 hr 40 mins.

I had never made stew before and thought I would give this recipe a try -- it was wonderful! I did, however, take a few suggestions offered on other reviews. I used Better than Buillon instead of buillon cubes, used one cup of red cooking wine in place of a cup of water, added some fresh garlic and upped the cornstarch to make a thicker broth. This is a recipe I will use again and again. :)

This Recipe is soooo good!!! The first time I made it I cooked everything together for about an hour and 15 mins, to cut down on time, the second time I made it I followed everything exactly and it was a million times better, the meat is way more tender, definitley worth the time!!!! Can't wait to make it for mom, she will be so impressed!!!

This is one of my most favorite recipes from this site! Absolutely delicious! I served it with crusty rolls and also added some steamfresh mixed veggies that I had leftover from the night before. I'll be making this one all winter long. Thank you for sharing!
