There is something so comforting eating a hearty bowl of beef stew. I love to place all of the items in the slow cooker at night before we go to sleep and let it cook on low until we want to eat it the following day.

How to Make Beef Stew

Rich and hearty with only a few ingredients, the flavors combine to make a delicious stew. Honestly the longer this cooks the better the stew is and be sure to make enough for leftovers, because the flavors get better when it sits overnight in the fridge!

We love to make this beef stew recipe during the cold winter months but it can be made for a yummy Sunday dinner as well. On a cool day, there is nothing better than a warm stew or soup to keep you warm and toasty.

Easily substitute other vegetables that you have on hand as well- for example, turnips or parsnips would make a great addition/substitution as well. We have even made this with canned potatoes in a pinch!
