Slow Cooked Beef Stew Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Beef Recipes. (Slow Cooked Beef Stew Recipe). I love to come home to the smell of home-cooked food but as I'm the only one that cooks in our house, this is a rarity. That's why I love my slow cooker and this hearty winter dish is a favorite for all the family. Thick gravy and tender slow-cooked beef ideally served with mashed potatoes, cabbage, and some nice crusty bread to mop up. Great to prepare all the vegetables the night before especially if slow cooking.
