I found this recipe in a Marsha Adams cookbook and adapted it to suit my family's taste. It is perfect cold-weather food. My husband loves to come home to the aroma of this stew cooking! Don't let the long list of ingredients fool you, it is really easy to throw together.
Ingredients:
2 lbs stew meat
4 large red potatoes
4 carrots
2 stalks celery
1 large onion
1 cup frozen peas
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 cups water
1 beef bouillon cube
4 tablespoons minute tapioca
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon marjoram
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1 bay leaf
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
2. Cut meat into bite-size pieces.
3. Cut potatoes into pieces a bit larger than meat.
4. Peel carrots and onion and cut celery, carrots, and onion into 1 inch pieces.
5. In a large dutch oven, combine all ingredients and bake for 5 hours in 300 degree oven without stirring.
6. I like to serve this stew with homemade buttermilk biscuits.
