This stew was soooo good! It came out so tender that my 11 month old daughter could eat it without molars and without me having to cut everything into smaller pieces. It just dissolves in your mouth. I have to admit that I used about half the amount of bacon in this recipe.

I could not beleive what a hit this recipe was. It was "comfort food" at a small family ge-together and everybody loved it so much, they ate huge meal size portions of it. I substituted vegetable stock for the beef stock to accomodate the non-beef eaters. In fact, the only complaint I got was from my husband who said I should NOT have invited all those people to eat it all up! Can't wait to make it again!

It tasted good, but it was very heavy. Next time I think I'll cut down on the bacon a lot...1.5 lbs was too much for me & made it a bit greasy. Also, next time I'll try olive oil for sauteing. It's definately worth another try though! The lamb was very tender.

First off, let me say that the only change that I made to this, was that I subsituted beer for the wine. No other changes were necessary. Wow, this is delicious! I made this for a St. Patrick's Day potluck at work. Well, not much of it made in for my co-workers. My skeptical family LOVED it. After a huge BBQ dinner, they decided that they wanted to "taste" it. 2 bowls (each) later, they were begging for more. I had to hide it in order for any of it to make it in to work! I recommend this to all! It defeinitely deserves a 5 star rating!

I'm not Irish, but a farm girl from Ohio. I sauted the veggies in the bacon grease before adding the meat to brown. It flavored the veggies to perfection. I added celery for added taste. This was excellent. It is NOT low fat and someone suggested leaving out the bacon??? That is what gives it such a wonderful taste.

Very tasty recipe. I left out the bacon, and used a bit of olive oil instead to cut down on the fat. Thanks for sharing!!

Great flavor! I used boneless lamb loin as my butcher had no shoulder. I put everything in the crock pot, left for work in the AM, came home and enjoyed! Definitely make with the Irish soda bread on this site!

This turned out exactly the way I hoped it would. Stews should be simple ingredients and easy prep with big taste payoff. Here it is! I ended up without quite enough lamb and had to add a bit of stewing beef but it didn't take away from the flavour at all. WONDERFUL!!!

Couldn't get boneless lamb shoulder so had to trim lamb shoulder chops - what a chore! BUT it was certainly worth it! An absolutely delicious stew.

I wanted an authentic Irish Stew, and this was it. My family loved it, as long as I didn't tell the kids it was lamb. Teehee. I did use beer instead of wine, and I would make sure the potatoes are cubed. It's absolutely better after a few days, which I didn't think was possible. I wish lamb was less expensive, because I would make this much more often if it were. I can't wait to make this again!

Seeing that this recipe served 10, I halved for my family....I won't do that again...they all wanted more! I substituted beer (Killians) for the wine, and left out the second addition of onions (kids won't touch if they see onions). A delicious stew! Definitely a keeper. Very good with Irish soda bread.

Made this for our St. Pat's dinner. Smelled kinda' funky the day of cooking, but the next day...YUM! This was soooo good, especially sopped up with homemade soda bread. The younger kids didn't like it, but that's just because they don't like lamb. Everyone 18 and over just raved over it! Also used Guiness instead of wine.

This recipe is fantastic, I shared it with a co-worker, and we both enjoyed making it and eating it on St. Patrick's Day. It's a new family favourite. I made soda bread as well, which sealed the meal!
