First beef stew of the season

Finish this up and move on to the corn chowda, the next best thing.

Stews are a staple on camping trips...I got a recipe for an awesome Irish Stew.

We did a venison stew while we were at Massjam w/ the Scouts.

when i make my Beef stew ....

i cook everything separately first...

carrots: i cook in water with lots of brown sugar in it
so they taste sweet .... later on...

the meat: i barely stir fry to seal all sides
and that's it... it'll cook the rest of the way
in the stew and stay real tender...

potatoes: have the the starch skimmed off
several times... when boiled, afterwords they
are stir fried just enough to add some flavor..

s h i take mushrooms half stemmed and cut in half
stir fried in butter... mmmm

thicken up with a little whole wheat flour
and add your other veggies of choice...

just a few culinary tips for ya...

today's a perfect stew day !!
40 degrees with high pressure
brrrr

I always add a Can of Guiness to my Beef Stew (OK 2/3 of a can....always leave a couple of sips for the cook)...you wouldn't believe how rich and dark it makes it.

Just can't do it on the camping trips

We just finished the first pot of Tog chowder for this year, it was good but I still have not achieved perfection.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day ...
show him where to fish and ... you'll be sorry

i use corona... I find guiness is to tasty to cook with, but corona is perfect. 1 bottle of 1 part corona to 1 part chicken stock... add some bay leaves and some bouquet garni (sp?)....mmmmmmm
