Fantastic stew. The wine added a nice pop. Just perfect for this winter weather.

I've been cooking up beef stew for years and this recipe is by far the best I've ever tasted. The bacon, herbs and wine gave it a wonderful flavor. I followed recipe exactly except adding potatoes due to diabetes but took Jenny's advice and prepared mashed potatoes instead for my family to eat with stew spooned on. I will make this many more times.

I served this with horseradish mashed potatoes for dinner this weekend. I also cut out the red wine (we don't drink) and used beef broth instead. It still came out fine.

I've made this three times now, and my family loves it. It's so good.

I thought it was very good! It has lots of flavor, & is different from regular beef stew. I had some extra liquid I hated to throw out after making up prep containers, so I saved it in a microwaveable cup to sip the next day! Thanks for another great recipe!

Made this for dinner for my family tonight. We liked the overall taste and had a few ways we will cater the recipe to our individual tastes in the future. Thanks for uploading

We made this tonight for dinner. It was so delicious! My husband said it was the best roast he has ever had. I'm so thankful we have leftovers for tomorrow!

Hi, thanks for recipe. I am going to try this this weekend.
Just curious though.... The bacon fat doesnt get drained and discarded, its used in the stew? Just want to make sure...
Thanks

I just made this stew. It is so nourishing and delicious.This is the perfect recipe to take off the winter chill. It is rustic, full flavored, and just plain delicious. Very easy to make.

I have this in the slow cooker as we speak....I reduced the amt of wine by 1/2 c as to not make it too strong. I didn't have bacon of any kind in the house, but a lot of bacon fat, so I browned the meat in that. It already smells fantastic. THANK YOU for posting a stew without tomatoes, as my daughter has GERD and therefore can't have them. We are all looking forward to dinner tonight!
