    I think I sort of combined this with irish stew recipe but anyway it is great.

    I made 'the ultimate beef stew' recipe exactly as written and then added roasted garlic to mashed potatoes and parsley and the served stew over the potatoes and it was a perfect mix.

    Love the fact of adapting old recipes and adding new twists, substitutions and really feel like I am learning to cook for myself. Thank You.

    I made this recipe, from past experience with the strong flavor of cloves i only used just a tiny pinch, and i'm not a big fan of a bitter cabernet, so i used a much softer spanish red wine called La Alondra, so the wine did not overpower the beef. My soup turned out PERFECT! My husband really loved it. i think the key to this wonderful recipe is to use a wine that you would drink on its own and enjoy.

    about the orange peel, make SURE you take them out after cooking and before serving as they look alot like carrots but yuck, nasty to bite into, other than that it is a fabulous recipe and like many of his others that i have tried...Tyler it IS the ultimate...love that guy!

    Although the stew had good flavor, the liquid never thickened and I found the stew meat to be dry. I also thought the advance marinade was a bit much for the end result, other than the orange, which I thought gave it great flavor. I doubt I will make this again, but for those of you who wish to try it, I suggest using a different stew meat cut and also adding flour or another thickener to the liquid.

    Hey- So I wanted to make this beef stew and Tyler rarely lets me down. But I had to read the recipe over and over to make sure that I was reading it right: an entire bottle of red wine?? The recipe turned out pretty good. I am not sure I'll do the orange zest and ground cloves again (if I do, I will lessen them, but I guess it was a nice change to the norm. I added about 3 tsp. of garlic salt at the end...it was missing something and I think that helped. My advice is to put the zest in as big of pieces as you can in order to pull them out later... I had a bite of an orange peel at dinner and that was a bit disturbing! Everyone else is right: the sour cream topping is incredibly good in this. Good call, Tyler! Not sure I'll make it again... may try another recipe/cook for beef stew, but it was certainly worth trying.

    I had been looking for a recipe for dinner, Sounded good.
    I am sorry that i even tried to make this, I did not enjoy the taste. I had difficultly getting the stew to thicken. The recipe said that it would take 15 to 2o minutes ya right! I ended up making a roux and thickening it that way it was like eating the Ultimate Beef Stew soup!

    This is one recipe that I will never make again!!
