Beef bourguignon aka bœuf bourguignon aka beef Burgundy is a Traditional French beef stew braised in red wine and beef stock. The wine used is often wine from burgundy. Beef Burgundy is typically flavoured with carrots, onions, garlic, pearl onions, mushrooms, and bacon. Beef bourguignon in a restaurant can be quite different than the home version. it's usually more visually exciting and the textures often are more contrasted.

Salut,

[@tomodda1]

Alex, I love that you are examining all the Bistro Classics, keep it up!

[@AHG1347]

Steak Frites would be a solid dish to examine, especially with that wonderful peppercorn sauce.

[@benjaminwetscher9614]

That would be 🔥

[@Imakeeeeeno]

Chef seems like a legend, what a great personality!

[@bley99]

really surprised me he gave away the port and wine reduction secret

[@gregkinman7662]

@@bley99 level 1 is having a secret and not giving it away for fear of others replicating it and stealing your thunder. Level 1000 is having a secret and it being open to the world since you are so good no one can even replicate it even if they know it

[@zoli11]

@@bley99 It's not exactly a secret, a lot of recipes call for port wine. Any chef would know the technique, possibly Alex did too, but it's interesting for us amateurs.

[@HuogoFuri]

About a year or two ago I learned how to make this and it has been something my family has requested consistently for birthday meals. I'm so excited to learn more about building on this dish!

[@iceomistar4302]

It's a really fun recipe to make too, even if ny recipe is no where near what you get in Paris it's still amazing to eat especially with chips or mashed potatoes.

[@christianagrafiotis7103]

I am glad you post more regularly now, you really set the standard for quality content creation

Love the new-ish refreshing editing style on this video. Amazing job, Alex! Cheers

[@r.helmet4855]

Watching your videos just amplifies the love for amazing dishes and beautiful settings in me. Your eye for details, the power of your storytelling, the teaching … It amazes me in every episode and I’m looking forward for many great dishes and many great featured artisans to come. Keep up the joyful und inspiring work 🙌🏻 Greetings from Munich to beautiful Paris 🇩🇪🇫🇷

[@inigoselwood9382]

J'adore que tu nous montres plus de Paris récemment 🥰

[@jackbrooksbank8429]

I hope the chefs that participate in these series find it worthwhile too, there have been so many world-class chefs that have been so generous with their time! I mean, I am now definitely going to this bistro (and Utopie from the eclair series) next time I am in Paris... but who knows when that will ever happen!

[@LabGecko]

Same. I have had boeuf bourguignon at several bistros but while quite good, none have really wowed me. Now I can go to Le Petít Célestín and have a standard to compare to. This, Utopie, La Maison d'Isabelle, and so many others! Finding gems like this just in Paris can be a challenge. Kudos to Alex for making this possible!

[@kenyadixon7632]

Do go to Le Petite Celestin. The food is amazing and I enjoyed myself there.

[@Cracked1ce]

Good luck. Service staff doesn't seem to like tourists.

[@CauchyProblem]

Despite being far far away from Paris, I can barely feel with that warmth and coziness going from your videos! I really enjoy how you show us your researches in French kitchen and how you explore the very best edges of it. Looking forward to the next video! You're awesome!

[@tobiasfust6588]

Love these new bistro-videos! As someone who hasn‘t been to France yet, these are absolutely beautiful ❤ Thank you so much and keep on rocking 😊

[@kwerby3285]

Starting with grandma’s recipe just feels so right. Like a love letter to the past before we head into deep waters.

[@rogerhartman998]

I just love this series already. The home warmth feel you get from this, the inspiration to make it yourself, the respect everybody has for the dish. Being it made proffesionally or the one your grandma made, there is just love and admiration. It just shows how perfect this dish is in it's essence. 👌

[@bertie2]

I adore your videos, Alex. I hadn't watched one in a while and then accidentally (forgive me) clicked on this one and you're just the very best. Thank you for what you do, this was so lovely to watch (and now I have to pop to Paris for lunch one day to try that spectacular boeuf bourguignon)! Merci !

[@Knasst]

Finally! This is my favorite dish since I was a boy. I’m so excited for this series, and for the moment when I can try to replicate what I’m assuming will be a godly recipe!

[@johnflowers4487]

I love that you deep dive into one particular dish and perfect it. Merci beaucoup!

[@aleksanderkalicki5518]

I was not expecting to hear Ravel's string quartet, great video btw

[@larry8lo]

Boeuf bourguignon is a very special place in my heart. It was the first meal made by wife (then girlfriend) in our first apartment. Also you're making me miss Paris.

[@DJ-nn6vg]

This is the one dish where you could actually see the care and depth of flavor emanating from the plate. Like a great croissant I know I could never replicate this recipe. That’s why I’m booking a trip to Paris soon!

[@bluaaahhhh]

This 2vid series format is light and cool, I love this balance, I love a lot your longer series too, I'm here for everything you try out

[@Danielle_1234]

Perfect timing. I just spent yesterday googling around for beef bourguignon recipes. I figure it will make the perfect winter time meal. Happy early holidays everyone.

[@Mervin-Bunter]

I can't wait to make the recipe you come up with. Great stuff, Alex!

[@accordionbabe]

Brilliant editing in all your episodes. Telling your stories with the soul of an artist! Thank you. More, please.

[@alexwood3932]

You're an endless inspiration, Alex - thank you for everything you do - your videos keep going up and up and up in quality and content, and it's incredible to watch

[@ToddLuvsGolf]

This too, is one of my favorite dishes. My family adores it as well. Really looking forward to seeing your grandmother's version an well as your interpretation. Merci Alex!!

[@TyroPirate]

I'm going to Paris for the first time, for three days, in about a month... Just the last few videos alone on this channel got me drooling, and I already know exactly where I'm going for lunch and breakfast. Time to binge Alex's videos to plan get the rest of my cuisine experience!! Is there already a list of "Alex's favorites"??

[@AlexMoskau]

on his website

[@holyfox94]

All you need in Paris, is the blog of Monsieur Pudlowski. His recommendations never failed me.

[@dimimihov]

I like the way you talking about the things in life Alex. To me it is the whole life, what you talking about. Not just the taste or the kitchen of a country, but the memories, the feeling, the life on it’s own. I like you, I like your channel and I wish you everything best!

[@paulkinsella6334]

This is the mini series I've been waiting for, brilliant!

[@Getpojke]

Forgive me as my French is terrible. But I still love the passion & animation of hearing/watching two French people excitedly talk about food. I only get a few words in every ten... but you can still hear the love.

[@SLOAngieBabie]

Alex, merci. I saw your post before I arrived in Paris two days ago. I made a reservation at Le Petit Celestine for lunch today. The Boeuf Bourguignon was as you described. Lucious, deep beef flavor that fell apart and melted in my mouth. And yes, you want to drag their delicious bread through all the sauce and clean the plate. The chocolate mousse was like butter. A friend had the prunes in cognac and ate every bite. The staff was helpful, friendly and attentive. The chef stopped in at every table. So many locals there greeting each other. Superb! Merci!

[@michael6880]

I remember my first time having boeuf, was right around when i started culinary school it really opened my mind to how good food really can be The little extra the chef added was these mini pickled pearl onions that added a nice sweet and fresh pop Outside of fine dining it's my favorite dish to make

[@TheMelongs]

you know what I had this dish last night for dinner and thought yeh I need some ways to improve this somehow and today we have this video

[@andrina118]

My mother first got me into cooking, but it was a small book on Parisian Bistro classic dishes that really pulled me in. Loved how gruff and unassuming Jais is, Thank you Alex for another great piece! Love from UK!!

[@attorneyrobert]

Such a classic. Love the modifications that this restaurant you've featured uses. Those vegetables look amazing.

[@lollorosso4675]

That sauce looked amazing! Looking forward to your detailed analysis.

[@lugaretzia]

Great watching two French gents talk about food with passion that is infectious.

[@jaredbecker3152]

This change of pace from pasta pasta pasta to a new topic every video is extremely refreshing and so entertaining! Absoultley loving it! 😁

[@lucasotis9525]

I love the timing of your ad. I was engrossed, engaged, curious, and in the edge of my seat. Well played.

[@gsomers248]

This version looks amazing and I'm sure, tastes incredible! Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

[@leodemardel]

Hey Alex, that dish looks like a masterpiece done by an artist. Can't wait to see your grandma's recipe. Saludos amigo!

OMG so much Looking Forward to this series Gonna watch every epsode Several times :D

[@SerialDriver]

Un de mes plats préférés, donc j'ai hâte de voir toute la série!

[@ramyaravinuthala8236]

Wow this might be the ( probably ) first time the first time I have seen someone as passionate about food as much as Alex ...I hope to eat at that bistro one day 🥰🥰🥰

[@hubertboguski]

i like the vibe of how u look at the building with silence, makes it a more authentic experience. also eating beef rn so this is perfect.

[@Dernadu94]

Ptin le bistro tenue par des Jaïs et Yannis qui passe du scred co’ en faisant un boeuf bourguignon de tueur c’est vraiment la meilleur version de la France ca ! Vous êtes des boss d’avoir cette amour de la table et de le partager si bien ! Force a vous et merci encore a Alex de nous faire découvrir ces adresses, ces chefs, ces plats !

[@arno-4709]

Walla t'as vu wesh la tradition

[@Getpojke]

Beautiful. I know we Brits & you French have a friendly rivalry. We lovingly call you frogs & you call us roast beefs [rostbif]. Though we are famed for our beef cooking... a good Beef Bourguignon is not only a delight but rivals any beef dish we cook up. As an aside, I do a recipe I make for the Traditional Scottish New Years Day [Hognamay] steak pie. My friends all ask me to make them one & they call it "Black Pie" as the filling is so rich & dark. To get the sauce so rich I chop up liver & kidney finely so it melts into the gravy & use oxtail [I remove the bones afterwards] to add a thick mouthfeel & add gloss. Coupled with the porter or stout [Guinness] plus a few other things like cep powder it makes for a glorious eat. Looking forward to the next instalment of this.

[@notme1345]

Now i need to try black pie 🤤

[@jordanwidmer3561]

My god this video makes me hungry. The best French tourism videos out there. I also appreciate you speaking with someone in French--it's a good opportunity to keep my French listening skills from rusting away entirely.

[@visiousbrute]

I am super excited about this. I will be learning with you, Alex. Really looking forward to your next video.

[@wbobth]

Amazing1 I love these series, keep it up! an idea for the next series...how average French people drink wine, what they look for in selectingsomething to go with dinner. there is a bewildering amount of information out there, I love how your videos distill the complex into something manageable for the average person.

[@cyrilevo-quang1754]

Merci Alex de nous faire decouvrir ces endroits si beaux! Je tâcherai d'aller gouter ce Bourgignon la prochaine fois que je serai a Paris!

[@redsnappa7837]

Great video Alex, I love bœuf bourguignon! Le Petit Celestin is added to my long list of places to go in Paris... The photo of le petit Alex avec grand-mere was a nice touch

[@realcorkdan]

i love how proud the chef is of his trade and his bistro … absolute legend

[@woud3404]

I love these video's where you are deep diving into a dish. Looking forward to the next one. Are you going to have a follow up video on the eclair? :D

[@dirk7593]

I made Beef Bourguignon the other day and it was AMAZING. A whole bottle of Pinot wine went into it and I reduced the sauce down. I too used beef cheeks and slow cooked it for at least 6 hours in the oven in a iron pot. It is a very special dish and I look forward to see what you come up with. I love your channel by the way. Just so great. Keep it up.

[@NicolasBideau]

Je sais déjà où j'irais manger cet été à Paris grâce à toi ! Merci 😀

[@imedmelouah3037]

Paris this time of years is SOOOO beautiful. I miss visiting when I was stationed in Germany

[@driddo5k282]

This is really one of the best food related shows on all forms of media.

[@Christopher._M]

This intro style reminds me of those travel show's/blogs from the 2000's.

[@Nic-tg2ei]

I'm watching this in my break from learning French. Really motivating, must visit and try the delicious food!

[@philhitchings]

A great appetizer for this French classic. There will be so much to learn from this series :)

[@fredrikloveus1661]

I make it with moose usually. My daughter of 1.5 years LOVE it. Her favourite dish. Truly a classic!

[@lokilyesmyth]

I’ve made this dish many times. I’m looking forward to your take on this.

This is one of the most delicious videos I’ve ever watched. I’ve just drooled all over my keyboard. 🤤😋

[@mrbbm2000]

Yes!! I’ve been waiting for you to do more French classic! And my favorite treat!!

[@F14Goose37]

Pretty excited for this series. I love braised beef dishes.

[@mickeyfilmer5551]

I really look forward to your recipe because that, as you say was art- un gastronomie d'art

[@tl7014]

I just came back to London from Paris and visited Le Petit Celestine after watching your this video. Can confirm this is the best beef bourguignon in Paris and all the dishes this restaurant serves are exceptional

[@chupitrooper5878]

Alex's mannerisms are just like the food he covers: irresistible. Beyond happy someone like him can produce content, the lens with which he shows the world of food is one I need to get a prescription for posthaste!

[@corinna7736]

Went there today 😄 Loved the place, the friendly people and of course the beef bourguignon - so far it was my favourite dish in beautiful Paris this week 😍

[@magnificalux]

Wow, this looks absolutely beautiful! Filmed so well that the whole plate of bœuf bourguignon is reachable through the screen! 😍🤤

[@leandronicolas8848]

Those intro shots of Paris were as beautiful as the glow on that sauce!!

[@gordontubbs]

Many years ago, this dish was my passport into home cooking. In one dish you have so many basics that once mastered, can be applied to nearly everything.

[@sonodiventataunalbero5576]

Salut Alex, j'adore ton channel. Hi fron Switzerland 🙋‍♀️ Passion, fraîcheur, just pure pleasure and joy paired with savoir-faire and knowledge. Quelle merveille, quel bonheur 😊

[@GetHandsDirty]

Excited to see your version of it! I might try to mimic it later :D

[@edwardrocca]

Alex! How can I watch your videos, when I’m drooling all over my keyboard from how delicious those shots look?! Fantastic! I’m considering taking a flight to Paris just to try this dish! 😃

[@thefoolishhiker3103]

This was a fantastic video. I really enjoyed it. I really want to make a trip to Paris to experience these flavors myself. In the meantime I have to settle for watching your videos and trying them myself.

[@DiakosDelvin]

I can practically smell the sauce through the screen.

[@dwhite3209]

I’ll have to check this out next month when I’m in town!

[@xdevilwarrior]

I like these later videos. I was starting to get a bit overwhelmed with the intense pasta-making worship.

Great video! I love the shots of Paris. I have to go back now that I am older. When I was there I was much younger and I was only trying to find the cheapest hotels, restaurants, etc.

[@brooklynvlogs9396]

Wow first time I ever seen food through a screen and my mouth started watering, I have to make this! 😍

[@brentmurray4201]

My sons and I are planning a future trip to Paris and I am definitely going to that restaurant for bourguinion. It looked delightful.

[@Joe___R]

Now I am going to have to get my grandmother to make me some pot roast. Cooking each vegetable separately makes sense to help every ingredient stand out in the dish. I can't wait to see your version than try to make it myself.

[@JoriDiculous]

That is the most tasty Beef bourguignon i have ever seen. And that sauce. its a piece of art.

[@kenbender373]

I make this when go camping with my daughter. Fav in the mountains

[@josiphodak4230]

If all vegetables are cooked separately is it still beef bourguignon or is it slow cooked beef cheeks with a vine reduction sauce and sauteed vegetables? Idk, but i feel like it's not the same dish

[@danchisholm1]

alex!! love ❤️ from los angeles... your chef's recommendations (less cooking of carrots & onions... no bacon, ...) is what we did with your grandma's amazing recipe at our home last weekend. grounded in french cuisine. with an angle more toward the lighter california style. to me, improvement on perfection! combining french and californian cuisine.... and the result. parfait! comme d'habitude, on t'aime et tes recipes.

[@tomaszhruczkowski2919]

Hi Alex, your channel has been my main source of culinary education (and entertainment). Thank you! Beef bourguignon has been my recent challenge. I am in Paris since last Monday, and have been searching for best beef bourguignon to establish a credible reference :). Trip advisor listed a promising #2 "Au B...du M...". Experience was more than forgettable. Tonight is my last day in Paris, and I was able to reserve a 8 pm table at Le Petit Célestin. Thank you for your very timely review. Looking forward to more of your tips before my next trip here!

[@harris2898]

and? was their beef bourguignon as good as alex suggests in this video?

[@tomaszhruczkowski2919]

Unfortunately they did not serve it that night. But their other dishes were very good. Chef promised to have Beef Bourguignon on the menu when I am back in Paris in 3 weeks.
