Slow cooker beef stew recipe with rich gravy
Can I be honest with you my friends? In the past I’ve not been quite convinced about slower beef stews.
Sometimes bland, sometimes watery. Curries work well because of the extra flavour from spices etc, but stews and casseroles can be a little disappointing.
So… I made it my mission to solve this problem! I have tweaked and polished this recipe about 20 times, I kid you not, and I feel like we’re finally there.
Mission to create a delicious, thick Slow Cooker Beef Stew is complete.
The beef is tender, the veggies wholesome and the beer makes for a lovely rich gravy.
I hope you love this classic as much as we do ❤️

About Slow Cooker Beef Casserole
Could the humble stew be the one dish that dates back to the very beginnings of humankind?
It’s thought that might be the case, with evidence of the meal dating back centuries all over the world, from Japan to Amazonian rainforests, France and, obviously, Ireland with its famous Irish Stew.
While our early ancestors might have boiled up meat and some vegetables over a fire, cooking has come along a tad since then.
That said, the dish hasn’t evolved dramatically over the course of centuries, and with good reason. There simply is nothing more heartwarming over the colder months than a steaming bowl of beef casserole
And we all know that being able to make this kind of meal in the slow cooker is the dream scenario, so I hope you find this version works for you.
There are a few tips and ingredients involved that should elevate it from an ordinary just-ok recipe to one you go to time and time again, but we’re still keeping it super simple and very much affordable for an ideal family-friendly dinner.
