Print Friendly and PDF

If you think stew can be “boring,” you’ll enjoy this easy, flavorful dish. As one reader says, “Very delicious, warming, and tasty. Eaten with warm, crusty bread.” A proven family favorite.

Ingredients
2 pounds lean beef (preferably chuck roast)
2 large onions, cut into wedges
1 pound new potatoes, sliced
1 package (1 pound) baby carrots, cut in half
1-1/2 tablespoons dried Italian seasoning
2 teaspoons beef bouillon granules
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 cans (11-1/2 ounces each) hot and spicy vegetable juice
Instructions

Cut beef into 1- to 1-1/2-inch cubes; place in a 4-1/2-quart Dutch oven. Add onions and next seven ingredients. Bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat; cover and transfer to oven.

Bake 4 hours at 250 degrees. Do not peek. Do not stir. Serve with cornbread or warm, crusty bread.

My all time favorite beef stew. It’s spicy so now I make it half and half, regular and spicy.

I've never made something like this before, and it was great. My family of 3 got three meals from this recipe, and the longer it sat the better it was. I added garlic, a few mushrooms, and a little celery. I will definitely make this again - amazing with crusty warm bread.

Sounds great but need help: what is "hot and spicy vegetable juice"? I haven't lived in the States for almost 20 years so will need to make whatever substitute I can based on knowing what the original is! Thanks.

V-8 Juice used to make a spicy type of V-8 try that. Steve

V-8 makes a spicy vegetable juice. Other than that, make veggie juice with some Tabasco maybe?
