Trying my hand at beef stew for the first time. It's braising in the oven right now and I'm very nervous ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž

Beef initiative beef ( nostr:npub1w6yuyqth6vhsf4d55rya5vnpwkmv5ye6gncadhjzk8zzu8valvdsyk5pt8 ) and Peony Lane ( nostr:npub153xmex42x4chdf757hp3q6zxagykkek7pdgwuwd074964dkyha9s82ryu8 ) wine were used. I hope I don't put them to shame.

I expect photos when it's done.

Will do. Here's an in progress in the meantime.

Looks great so far.

Thanks ๐Ÿ˜

It looks about the same now that it's done, but the meat is super tender and there are carrots and potatoes now.

Excellent!

oh thats gonna slap.

It's pretty slappy ๐Ÿ”ฅ

It'll get better the more I make it for sure.

Practice makes the slap happen.

you got this Jay!

wish I could taste it

Thanks! It turned out pretty good, probably due in no small part to the good wine ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜

Donโ€™t fail us. This is for all the marbles.

Now that it's done, I can safely say, I have not failed you ๐Ÿซก

Beef stew was a success, thank God ๐Ÿ˜

The meat readily falls apart and the veggies are extremely soft, and it tastes pretty good too. Not bad for my first try. Quality meat goes a long way.

Though I'm wondering if I should thicken up the broth with some more flour or just keep it nice and soupy ๐Ÿค”

Here's the recipe:
