How to Make 5 Hour Beef Stew
- Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C).
- In a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot, brown the beef cubes over medium-high heat. Remove beef and set aside.
- Add the onion and carrots to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Gradually whisk in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Return the beef to the pot. Add the potatoes, tomatoes, peas, mushrooms, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
- Bring to a simmer on the stovetop.
- Transfer the pot to the preheated oven, cover, and bake for 5 hours, or until the beef is incredibly tender.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
- Serve hot in bread bowls or with crusty hard rolls.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
