How to Make Beer Braised Beef From A Crock Pot
- Cut 2 lbs stew beef into 1 1/2-inch cubes.
- Place beef cubes in the bottom of your crock pot.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 (12 oz) bottle dark beer (such as stout or porter), 1 cup beef broth, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour the beer mixture over the beef in the crock pot.
- Cook on low for 8-10 hours, or on high for 4-5 hours, or until beef is fork-tender.
- For a thicker gravy, in a small bowl whisk together 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour and 2 tablespoons cold water to form a slurry.
- Turn crock pot to high. Slowly whisk in the flour slurry, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency (about 2-3 minutes).
- Serve the beer braised beef over cooked egg noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
