Dads Stew Meat Recipes

Steps:

• In medium sauce pan, heat oil to low/medium heat, saute onion.
• Dice the tomatoes just small enough the skin is bite size.
• Cut meat into bite size or smaller pieces, removing fat if needed.
• When onions are translucent, add meat (if desired) and cover with lid.
• If you added meat, raise temp to medium and cook until the meat is done. Add diced tomatoes, cover and bring to a boil.
• Reduce to simmer and cook until tomatoes have dissolved (~20min), stirring occasionally.
• Add salt to taste, cook additional 3min and serve with french bread.

Steps:

• Combine the flour and pepper in a bowl, add the beef and toss to coat well. Heat 3 teaspoons of the oil in a large pot. Add the beef a few pieces at a time; do not overcrowd. Cook, turning the pieces until beef is browned on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch; add more oil as needed between batches.
• Remove the beef from the pot and add the vinegar and wine. Cook over medium-high heat, scraping the pan with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits. Add the beef, beef broth and bay leaves. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a slow simmer.
• Cover and cook, skimming broth from time to time, until the beef is tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Add the onions and carrots and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Add the potatoes and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes more. Add broth or water if the stew is dry. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle among 4 bowls and serve.

Steps:

• 1. In a frying pan melt the butter, then brown onions thoroughly.
• 2. Remove onions from frying pan and place in a large pot, leaving some of the butter behind in the frying pan.
• 3. Place flour, salt, and pepper into gallon sized ziplock bag, add beef cubes, and mix so that all sides of the beef cubes are covered.
• 4. Brown beef in the same frying pan as onions in the leftover butter. When all sides of beef are browned, deglaze frying pan with some water, and pour contents into pot with onions.
• 5. Add beef stock, carrots, celery, and bay leaf to pot, simmer for 1 hour.
• 6. Add potatoes to pot, continue simmering until potatoes are done (about 30 minutes).
• 7. Add can of corn and water to achieve desired consistency.
• 8. Remove bay leaf and serve.

Steps:

• Coat beef with flour, shaking off excess. In a large nonstick stock pot, heat oil over medium-high heat, add beef and saute until brown, approximately 6 minutes. Remove beef from stock pot and set aside.
• Add onions and mushrooms to stock pot and saute for 6 minutes. Add garlic and saute for 1 minute, continually stirring.
• Skim off fat any fat from the stock pot and return cooked beef to pot; stir in tomato paste and broth. Add enough water to just cover ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until beef is tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
• Skim off any foam that has accumulated on the surface of stew and add carrots, potatoes and green beans. Cover partially and simmer for 15 minutes.
• In a small mixing bowl, mix cornstarch and cold water. Stir mixture into stew. Increase heat and boil uncovered for 1 minute. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Saute onions until browned; remove from pot, and set aside. Add ground beef to pot, and cook until evenly brown. Add garlic, and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in browned onions, and cook on high heat for 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in 1 cup of water. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
• Stir in ketchup, beef stock, and teriyaki sauce. Season with pepper, curry powder, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cover, and simmer for about 2 hours.
• Mix together 1 tablespoon flour and 1/2 cup water. Stir into stew, and cook until thickened.

Steps:

• Place beef heart in large kettle and cover with 12 cups water. I use a large stockpot for this. Bring to a boil over medium heat and simmer for 4-5 hours or until heart is tender. May need to add more water while cooking to keep meat covered. I usually add at least 4 more cups of water while it is cooking.
• Once heart is tender, remove heart from broth and let cool. Cube meat into 1-2 inch pieces and return to broth.
• Add in onions, potatoes, carrots and bay leaves. Cook on medium low heat for at least 4 hours.
• Stir in mushrooms, mushroom soup and barley. Simmer at least another hour or until barley is tender.
• Remove bay leaves before serving.
• The longer this cooks, the better it is. I have made this by cooking the heart one day, letting the heart and the broth cool over night and then putting it on the stove and finishing it the next day.
• Can also make this by cooking the heart on the stove, let cool and cube the meat, then put all remaining ingredients into a large roaster and cover and put in the oven and bake at 300 for 6 hours.
