"With my Irish father in town, I wanted a ready-made meal after a long day of sight-seeing. I chose a hearty beef stew and wanted to incorporate his favorite beer, Guinness. I was worried that we left it in too long, but after 10 hours on low and 2 hours on warm ( it was a long day of sight-seeing) it was still awesome! Makes a flavorful, thick sauce to dip bread in. I filled the crock pot to the top because I wanted enough for them to have lunch left-overs, so decrease the amounts if needed. Enjoy!"

directions

  • Put potato, carrot, and celery chunks in the bottom of crock pot. Top with 2 bay leaves.
  • Season flour with a dash of salt, pepper and garlic powder and coat the beef with the flour mixture. Heat a couple of tbsp of olive oil over med-high heat in a large skillet and add 1 bay leaf. Sauté beef in batches, just until browned.(It took me about 3 batches in a 12" skillet). Add more oil to pan as necessary for each batch. Remove and set aside.
  • Add onion and garlic to the same pan and sauté over med heat for a few minutes, then add about half the can of beef broth to deglaze, scraping up the brown bits on the bottom of the pan. (That's Flavor!).
  • Add meat and onions to crock pot, top with mushrooms.
  • Mix remaining beef broth with tomato sauce, onion soup mix, remaining seasonings, and add to crock pot. Pour in most of bottle of beer (whatever fits, I had a few sips left for me).
  • Cook 8 hours on low heat. Stir in frozen peas when done, they'll heat up on their own.
  • Serve with crusty French bread!
  • *Tony Chachere's and Mrs. Dash are my "go-to" seasonings for everything. You can use your favorite if these are not available.

  1. Can top sirloin be used instead ? It’s all I have on hand.

  2. I'm making this today (St. Patrick's Day 2024) and wonder if leftovers can be frozen successfully?

  3. I made this recipe today and followed it to the letter. It smells so wonderful in the crockpot. I just tasted it after eight hours of slow cooking and the gravy tastes slightly bitter to me. Has anyone else felt the same way? Can I add cocoa or sugar to sweeten it slightly? Maybe I'm just not used to the beer flavor. I did use a Guinness stout.

  1. I love this stew, it is the best I have ever had! Tried it both with Guinness stout and draught (and once with Murphy's Irish Stout, and using a stout beer is the way to go. Gives it a richer flavor, not that flavor is lacking in this recipe. Works great in a crock pot, but I love it in a cast iron dutch oven too! You can use it to brown the meat and add the other ingredients and just pop it in the oven, I did 3 hours at 300 degrees but I am sure time/temp can be successfully tweaked. Thanks c.walsh for this recipe, I have passed it on to many family members!

  2. I made this in a Dutch oven and cooked at 300 for about 5 hours. It was delicious. I used about a bag of the small baby carrots and just cut them in half. Cut the potatoes a little smaller since a quarter of a potato seemed really big. It totally filled the pot so I had a little spill over in the oven but it thickened up just right to be a nice stew and the meat was so tender. I just used the package of stew beef from the store,

  3. Wonderful! I have made many stews over the years but this one is definitely at the top of the list. The only change I made was that I used "beef onion soup" mix. I can't say enough good things about this stew! Definitely a keeper.

  4. Ah,maze,ing!!!! So good and I didn't follow exactly. I used Guinness Draught with bouillon cubes and water; no strong beer taste at all. I also dubbed diced tomatoes instead of sauce (out) and no onions (out). It turned out so good! It cooked all day on low; about 10 hours. Peas added a nice texture. I also steamed cabbage and put some pieces on top after putting in bowls. Had with Irish Soda Bread. DELISH!!!!! A must for St Paddys day or any day!

  5. Fantastic! Everyone loved it and wanted more. I used only 2 bay leaves, regular white mushrooms, only one can of tomato sauce and forgot the peas. I cooked it in the crock pot on high for 5 hours. I only had cans of Guinness on hand and used a whole can (14.9 oz). I'll definitely make this again.
