Loved this pretty much as is! Found it flavorful and my husband and I both liked it. You can taste the mustard so if you don't like mustard this might not be for you. The only things I changed was I used diced tomatoes that were flavored with rosemary and oregano. And I halved the recipe because I didn't have that much meat, but wasn't sure exactly how many lbs it was so ended up adding a tiny bit more mustard and thyme because I thought it might need it. Also cooked it for 40 min instead of an hour because we were starving and the meat was fine, but would have been better after an hour I think.

My husband and I really enjoyed this recipe. Thanks. I used 2+ pounds of beef, white yams instead of potatoes, more thyme and cooked it in a 3.5 qt slow cooker on High for 4hrs then scooped out some liquid. I put the veggies in and cooked on high for another 1.5 hrs.

Tasty beef stew recipe, and I don't particularly like beef stew. I would recommend marinating the beef though. The stew has nice flavors but if you get a larger piece of beef then beef flavor just overwhelms everything in your mouth, granted the beef was super tender, and if you like the taste of beef then that's probably a good thing. Perhaps a marinade with dijon mustard playing a major role to get a bit more of that flavor incorporated into the dish.

OMG this is good! I followed the recipe pretty closely but I did season the flour with salt, pepper and garlic powder before I brownded the meat , and added an onion when I added the veggies after letting the meat simmer for an hour first.

Delicious! I will be making more of this, and adding my own tweaks to the recipe as well. I've already made this again, and added more potatoes and carrots, as well as marjoram, sage, basil, and rosemary. I also found spicy brown mustard to compliment it very well, since I didn't have any dijon mustard for the second batch.

Made this recipe EXACTLY as is and it's amazing! Served with crusty French bread -- this will be a new rotation in our house!

This stew turned out OK, not bad but not nearly as amazingly delicious as I had hoped..It's a bit bland, even with the dijon. Some red chili pepper flakes and sweet potatoes might help!
