How to Make Beef In Beer

1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
2. In a bowl, combine 1 cup water and 1 (12-ounce) bottle of stout. Add 1 cup pitted prunes and soak overnight.
3. In a shallow dish, whisk together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour and 1 tablespoon mustard powder. Coat the beef (approximately 2 lbs) evenly in the flour mixture.
4. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add 1 large chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add 2 chopped carrots and cook for another 5 minutes.
5. Transfer the vegetables to a large casserole dish. Add the soaked prunes and their soaking liquid.
6. Add 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste).
7. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same pan and brown the beef on all sides. Add the browned beef to the casserole dish.
8. Cover the casserole dish tightly.
9. Cook in the preheated oven for 2.5 - 3 hours, or until the beef is incredibly tender.
