    After reading review I decided to try this recipe. I will NEVER make it this way again. The meat is done in one hour and way over cooked by the directions they give. I have always loved the Basic Beef Stew recipe I found in Cooking Light and that is the one I will stick with. Very disappointed that I had to keep thickening it because it was like Vegatable Beef Soup! Rate it a ZERO

    AMAZING with my slight alterations! I used 4 cups beef stock, 2 cups wine and 1 cup water. I thought the 10 cups was way too much and it would have been. I also added 1 tablespoon of extra tomato paste and instead of the canned tomatoes, I used 10 chopped sun dried tomatoes (not packed in oil. I also left out the red wine vinegar. After I tasted it I just thought why mess with perfection? It did take significantly longer to cook than the recipe said but it was SO worth it. The sauce was rich and yummy. It was just really really good but I can bet you the leftovers will be twice as good. I will make this again and again and again!!

    Decided to try this after reading reviews, a little time consuming but worth it. Delicious, easy, and inexpensive, Great with sour dough!

    Outrageous! Delicious! Epic! Best I've ever had! I can't believe it came out of my kitchen. Thanks so much for this recipe. I love it with Olivi & Son Bastone bread!

    Hubby and I have been making this specific recipe for years. We season the flour/beef with Emeril's Essence before browning and always use chicken broth. It is out of this world. We've never tried the vinegar, but I'm sure that would be very good (I may sneak it in eventually, lol. Best Beef Stew recipe ever!

    Great flavor for such few spices. Used 50/50 beef broth and water. Will try substituting some red wine next time. Left out the tomatoes, but added peas (I have a weird family that loves peas. Did the old flour and cold water trick at the end to thicken up. Breads didn't have a chance here, it all melted in.

    This is a great stew recipe, however, it takes longer to make than stated. I followed the recipe to a T..and my stew did not thicken up like we like it so I added some Tapioca to it, (old tip from my gramma and it thickened up perfectly. I also added 2 cans of cut green beans, and 2 cans of corn, because my family loves vegetables and this looked like it needed some more color. It was absolutely YUMMY!! I will try this again, only with less broth so that it thickens up more.

    No leftovers here! This stew was excellent. We omitted the tomatoes but it remains completely hearty. Everyone in my family loved it.
