    This is another Melissa winner! I used Beck's dark beer and, as a result, it seemed a little sour, so next time I'll grab a bottle of Belgian beer at Whole Foods where I can get just 1 bottle if I choose to. This time I just used a little brown sugar to adjust it...also used a splash of worchestershire. Flavors kept improving over 2 days!

    Dee-licious!
    Sauce is so Rick and delicious - will add peas with leftovers. Could be made with other veg in the mix. Great recipe - thanks, Melissa!

    Made this for dinner this evening, my husband couldn't stop eating it. He loved it. I love trying new dishes and surprising my husband of 40years. Will make this again.

    Great recipe! I had a busy weekend ahead and knew I wouldn't have time to do the whole recipe at one shot. So, I browned the bacon and then sliced and carmelized the onions (the longest part of the dish. The next day, I browned the meat (I browned the carrots a little too and added and browned a few small potatoes, then just put everything else in the pot, put the pot into the oven and got some other sutff done while it was cooking! Will definitely make it again.

    I made this for dinner tonight and yummy!, we loved it. The only alteration I made was to add some large mushrooms during the last 1/2 hour of cooking and I added the red potatoes to the pot as well. On the show, the red potatoees were served as a side dish.

    I found another recipe for beef carbonnade (America's Test Kitchen and decided to make both at the same time, inviting friends to decide which was the better of the two. Both were excellent but Melissa's had a depth of flavor that most of us preferred. I don't use much salt anymore( too old but did not find the recipe salty at all as the last reviewer stated. It was a simple, albeit tedious, recipe to prepare. I always try the recipe as printed BEFORE I make any changes!!! This one requires no changes...perfection. I could not find any dark Belgian beer in this small town and decided to use Guiness stout so the flavor would be close to the dark beer. This is a keeper! Thank you, Melissa, for sharing.

    I really liked it, I gave it three stars since it wasn't as big of a hit with my boyfriend.

    Just made this last night and I absolutely loved the flavor! I did not use thyme but it was soooo good even without it. I also cooked it on the stove top for 2 hours with occasional stirring. Thank you so much Melissa, I'm definitely saving this for the next time.
