Shopping List:
2 lbs Beef Stew Meat (Chuck Roast)
1 lb small red potatoes
3-4 carrots
1 Yellow Onion
3-4 stalks of Celery
1 tbsp Garlic Paste
3 cups Beef Broth or stock
2 tbsps Tomato Paste
1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
Fresh Rosemary and Thyme
1 tbsp Better than bouillon Beef Base
2 Bay Leaves
Salt, Pepper, Garlic, Onion Powder, Italian Seasoning, Cayenne
2-3 tbsps flour
1 cup frozen peas
Directions:
Start by seasoning your meat. Get skillet smoking hot and sear meat on all sides until you get a nice crust. Remove meat once color has developed and then add in your onion and carrots. Cook until tender. Next, add your tomato paste and beef base. Mix to combine. Add your flour and cook for 1-2 minutes or until raw flour is cooked off. Add beef stock and bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer.
Next, add in your Worcestershire sauce, fresh herbs and bay leaves. Cover and cook on low for 1.5 - 2 hours or until Beef begins to get tender. Next, add in your potatoes and celery for the final 20-30 minutes. Season to taste. Once the beef is fork tender and the veggies are tender, you can serve it. Serve in a bowl or over some white rice.

“adjust the seasoning to your palette rather than going to the YT comments & complaining” 😂👏🏾 lol

[@johnbernstein7887]

Chop a large onion and dice half and quarter the other half. Salt and pepper some flour and toss the beef in it, then sautee. This makes a thickner for the stew. You won't have to add flour. I like to add peas near the end.

[@WILMA_]

Thanks for the toss beef in flour tip!

[@crisc9280]

Finally somebody said it and this guy did. "If you don't like peas then you should grow up". Great video 👍

[@petriebaker3628]

Made this beef stew last night and it turned out perfect. Great tip on salting the meat with salt only to sear to avoid the burning. Loved it!!

[@angelurena6137]

This came out excellent. As a single dude I always look for food that will last for a few days so I don't have to cook everyday. This recipe was awesome! Many thanks

[@user-xx2ti3hv9h]

“Rather than going in the KZbin comments & complaining” 🤣🤣 he sick of y’all

[@eddiespagetti8395]

I am chef and soup and stews are my specialty. I do high heat dear the beef and also I Sautee the celery and carrots and onions seperately. Then add all together for a final heat to boil. So good. This looks delicious. Carrots take longest so carrots seperate and onions and celery after carrots. .I have sauteed them all together as well and some people will notice a difference in flavors when seperated and sauteed seperate.

[@uhv2luvme]

That's funny that you felt the need to comment as a chef on a chef's page with what you do...not professional at all...why not create your own page

[@user-sp6wr3po7w]

Thanks for the tip. I know carrots take forever and it bothered me not knowing when I should add it.

[@anniefannycharles9951]

I do the same thing with the vegetables.

[@maritzarivera6624]

Because why i just heard of your channel 🤦‍♀️ i am currently cooking this dish your way step by step, not finish but so far it smells so goooood. I have made beef stew before but spanish style sooo im excited to try a diff way(diff ingredients) nobody taught me how to cook, so i am teaching myself by watching videos of chefs 👨‍🍳. So thank you for this. I am now going try most of ur dish 😋 😂

[@jia7693]

i made this today and let me tell you…THIS WAS SO GOOD!!! i cooked my meat for a little longer because for extra tenderness. loved it so much thank you!

[@TREWHIT1]

I made this last night...OMG! I added 2 splashes of Cabernet Savignon just because I had some. It was great. I think I salted the meat too much but the potatoes pulled most of that back. The meat was crazy tender! It's definitely staying in rotation. Thank you for sharing. 😋

[@bennedettocracolici5058]

I love beef stew. My mom used take it this way, so much flavor and have a seede hot buttery semolina bread lol.

[@teihiniane]

i added a bit too much wine to mine let’s see how it turns out😂

[@laurasanducci5347]

I always put frozen peas in my beef stew and fresh green beans in my pot roast. You want to have some crusty bread to dip in the gravy. Yum!

[@TimRodriguezz]

Got everything to make this this morning at the grocery store when I went shopping and started cooking everything and now everything is just cooking for the next hour and my house smells so good I can’t wait to eat at it.

[@oceanbaby4521]

Well my husband loves peas! So when he watched you drop peas in the stew he... The man cheered ok! That stew looks wonderful and feeling! Not filling your stew evokes emotion my husband cheered 😆... Thanks again Mat for another beautiful dish.🍻🍻

[@aaronjanovsky9717]

I have made your beef stew recipe before and family just loves it. My sons just approached me to make this Sunday for our family dinner. Only difference is I like to also add sweet corn to mine. Taste great.

[@ksbrook1430]

I really like the "Better than..." bouillons. They have a nice variety. Recipe looks good and I'll be trying it.

[@mpowerucoaching1971]

🤗❤️🤗 Loved the video and the stew came out perfectly! I didn’t have anyone teach me to cook as a child so this was the best beef stew I’ve ever made!! I think I over did it with the salt also but I’m hoping the potatoes handle that. Still cooking, just about to add the potatoes but the taste test says PERFECT!! My daughter will be home from school soon, she’ll probably try to eat all of it 🤣 Thank you!

[@AngusHenry09]

Potatoes are recommended to be added if a dish is oversalted so unless you really went overboard, stew should be fine. You can also add a little more water and cook for a few minutes longer.

[@missa7562]

perfect time of the year for this and it looks so good.

[@dianeburgermeister7590]

Very tasty. I improvised a lot. Used ketchup instead of tomato paste, garlic powder. I did not use beef broth, only water. Store bought broth has too much sodium. The water worked fine. However for some reason the flour did not thicken the stew much. Overall I will certainly make this again! Loved it!

I make this the same but I use dried herbs and also a tiny pinch of all spice , delicious! thank you for a great video
