Beef Bourguignon (Beef Burgundy)
Considered by many to be the mother of all stews, Beef Bourguignon is a French dish made with beef, bacon lardons, carrots, onions and mushrooms slow cooked in a rich red wine sauce.
For the most magnificent stew of your life, start this 2 days before you plan to serve it, do not shortcut pan roasting ingredients individually, and use homemade beef stock!

The Dutch Oven Beef Stew! Easy and Delicious!
Make this easy and delicious Dutch oven Beef Stew recipe, perfect for the cold winter nights!
Full of flavor and beef so tender, it will melt in your mouth!
Perfect size Dutch oven for whole chicken, bread and stews:
Recipe:
- 800gr/2 pounds/lb of beef, I`ve used from the Chuck part.
- 3 carrots
- 2-3 potatoes
- 2 onions
- Half a cup peas
- Thyme, fresh is best, dry is ok too.
- Fresh parsley
- 2-3 cloves of garlic
- 2-3 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 cup red wine
- 1 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 cups beef stock/broth, we`ve used water and 2 beef stock cubes.
- Freshly ground pepper
- 65gram/Half a cup flour
After you cut the meat, dust it well with half of the flour, sear it well with oil in the dutch oven and remove it on a plate. In the same pot cook the onions and after 5 min add the garlic. Add the remaining flour and the tomato paste and stir it well. Add the red wine and stir until there is nothing sticking on the bottom of the dutch oven. Add back the meat, add the bay leaves and the smoked paprika. Add water and the beef stock cubes or even better if you have beef stock. Add the thyme and pepper and let it simmer without a lid for 45-50 minutes, then add the chopped carrots and potatoes, place the lid on and cook in a preheated oven 200C/392F for another 45-50 minutes. Add the peas and cook for another 10-15 minutes.

STEW RECIPE
▪5lb/2.5kg beef chuck
▪Olive oil
▪Salt
▪200g or about 2c pearl onions, peeled
▪400g or 3.4-4c carrots, cut into big chonky pieces
▪300g or 4.5-5c mushrooms, cut into large pieces
▪115g/1stick unsalted butter
▪125g or 3/4C + 3Tbsp AP flour (gluten free works too)
▪1800g or 1.8L/qt good beef stock (OR see my flavorful beef stock dupe below)
▪450g/1pint dark stout beer
▪500g/4c small golden potatoes, partially peeled and cut into very large chunks
▪2-3 bay leaves
▪2-3 sprigs of thyme
▪150g or 1 heaping cup frozen peas
▪fresh cracked black pepper
4 packets powdered gelatin
Preheat oven to 500F/260C.
Remove band of fat in the center of the pieces of chuck. See video @0:36. Cut the rest of the meat into cubes. You should be left with about 3.5lb/1.5kg of meat. Add meat cubes to a bowl and drizzle with generous amount of olive oil and 2 large pinches of salt. Toss to coat and spread beef onto a half sheet tray and load into oven to sear for about 20-25mins until well browned.
Preheat a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium high. Add a generous glug of olive oil followed by mushrooms, carrots, onions, and pinch of salt. Sweat the veg to par-cook for 3-5mins until beginning to soften and caramelize. Transfer veg into a bowl and set aside.
Return pan to stove over medium heat and add stick/115g butter. When butter is melted, add 100g or 3/4c of flour. Stir to cook, scraping up brown bits from bottom of the pot. Fry for 60-90 seconds until smooth and taking on color.
Add beef stock and beer. Bring to a simmer, stirring and scraping frequently. When simmering, add in beef. Add a splash of water to the beef cooking tray, scraping up beef fond. Add to pot with beef. Stir to combine. Load pot, uncovered, into 300F/150C oven and cook for 2 hours, stirring halfway through.
Add potatoes into the bowl with the par-cooked vegetables and mix with 25g/3Tbsp flour. Toss to combine. (NOTE: if your stew is relatively thick at this point, omit tossing the veg in the flour or add less flour here).
Add potatoes/veggies into stew pot and gently stir. Add in bay and thyme. Return to oven to cook for 1 more hour.
At this point, check the beef and potato for done-ness. Beef should be tender and shreddable, but not shredded. Potato should be fork tender, but not mushy.
Ladle off excess fat from top of stew (or allow to cool slightly, refridgerate, then scrape off fat from top once cooled). Stir peas into hot stew.
Taste for seasoning and add salt if needed. Ladle into bowl, top with fresh cracked black pepper, and serve with a piece of rustic sourdough bread.
