How To Make Beef Stew In A Crockpot

Beef stew is one of the recipes that work perfectly in a crockpot to slow cook the meat. I think cooking beef stew in a crockpot makes all of the ingredients super tender and meshes the flavor into one. This crockpot beef stew recipe by TosTinMan EasyCooking on YouTube is so easy, and it does not take much time to prepare. He does a great job giving full steps and instructions throughout the tutorial. The preparation time for this meal takes less than 15 minutes or less depending on how well you are with chopping vegetables and meat. Also, I don’t like my vegetables mushy, so it depends on how well you like them. I never thought about using an onion mix to make beef stew, but I’m sure it adds a ton of flavor.

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 lbs of beef chuck roast
• 5 russet potatoes
• 5 carrots
• 4 stalks of celery
• 4 cups of water
• 2 packets of onion soup mix
• 1 tablespoon of onion powder
• a sprinkle of Worcestershire Sauce
• salt
• Johnny’s Seasoned Pepper or regular black pepper

Directions:

First, prepare your vegetables and meat but cutting them into chunks. Then, dump your vegetables in the crockpot with water. Sprinkle over the onion soup mix packets, pepper, Worcestershire Sauce, and salt.

Next, add the beef chuck roast on top that’s seasoned with salt and pepper. Mix everything up and cook on HIGH for 5-6 hours.

In conclusion, this is a great Fall soup and meal. Beef stew has always been a hearty meal and it has all of the food groups. Beef stew reminds me of my childhood because my dad would always make it growing up, and he would serve it with rice or toasted french bread. It was definitely a meal to make when it was cooler outside to keep you warm in the inside.
