Hi! My first time here, and love the recipe! Doing a little research for later today, I scored a 4.5 lb chuck roast yesterday, and I'm thinking I'll turn it into this!
One of the things I'm most grateful for learning in a career spending a few years in restaurants, was how to braise beef from an honest to god French Chef. Short Ribs, Chuck Roasts, and Ox Tails are so flavorful. I do a similar 'pot roast' with a whole chuck roast. It's great for a gathering or party because you can cook it the day before and just heat it up and keep it in a warm oven. It's always a crowd pleaser.
I enjoy cooking but not following recipes.. Julia Child's Beef Bourguignon was one of the first recipes I made for my wife after we were married. She probably just watched Julie and Julia, bought me the book and I followed it exactly... It wasn't that good and my wife was never impressed with me again, which sucks for her, because we were already contractually obligated with the whole marriage thing... A decade later, this year, I made Beef Bourguignon again and it was so much better... Just made stew this weekend for my longest-tenured friends... they think I just put it in a slow cooker for the whole day, but I made it the day before and spent so much time, because it is a labor of love for these people... Bourbon 100% next time, will give this a shot if we ever get snow again...
Ultimate comfort food!

Looks fabulous. I could nearly smell it by the time you were done! Will definitely do this, now that stew season is here 😄
Yes!! This is the perfect winter warmer, and definitely a crowd pleaser. Let me know how it goes!! 🥃
@SavidgeKitchen I will (although I'm pretty sure it'll be amazing, already!).
Very informative
Glad you enjoyed it!
groovy
Or if your Gramom was dining with you - a cool summer meal lol.
This is a good recipe. I have made cornbread to go with it. Big crowd pleasure. What brand wine is used in this one please. Thank you ❤
Glad you liked it! It’s a big crowd pleaser for sure! I used Horse Haven 3’s Cabernet Sauvignon for this, but any full bodied red will work :)

Ah Yes, the stew labor of love. Just gets better with time ;)
