Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Place beef cubes into a large bowl. Season with kosher salt and black pepper. Add flour and paprika and toss until evenly coated.
- Heat oil in an oven-safe Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the beef cubes in batches until dark brown, about 4 minutes per side. Flip or stir gently with a wooden spoon until all edges are dark brown, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove beef and set aside.
- Add onions to the beef fat with more salt and pepper; cook and stir until they begin to caramelize, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and stir until aromatic and soft, about 30 seconds. Stir in tomato paste and cook until it turns brown and begins to caramelize and stick to the bottom of the pan. Deglaze with red wine, scraping up the flavorful browned bits on the bottom. Let the wine reduce until almost dry again, about 3 minutes.
- Add dried thyme, dried rosemary, herbes de Provence, and bay leaves. Add 2 cups beef broth and Worcestershire, stir, and bring to a boil. Add the seared beef cubes back into the stew liquid. Remove from heat and cover the pot.
- Braise in the preheated oven until meat is almost tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven. Add carrots, potatoes, and more beef broth if needed. Cover and return to the oven to braise until meat and vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes longer.
- Discard bay leaves. Stir in peas, fresh rosemary, and fresh thyme. Serve hot.

OLD-FASHIONED BEEF STEW
This rich, hearty beef stew has a garden full of flavor with vegetables like cabbage, rutabaga and carrots. Mom knew this main dish is one that would suit us 11 kids. When we were all home, she'd throw in extra vegetables to stretch it. -Anne Heinonen, Howell, Michigan

CLASSIC BEEF STEW
Aromatic and satisfying, a comforting bowl of beef stew always hits the mark on extra chilly nights. Here, seared pieces of marbled beef simmer away until fall-apart-tender in broth, with punchy aromatics added to it like tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, red wine, and fire-roasted tomatoes for a subtle smokiness.

Steps:
- Generously season beef with salt and pepper. Dust with flour and shake off excess. Heat a Dutch oven or other heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high, and swirl in 2 tablespoons oil.
- Add half of beef in a single layer and cook, turning a few times, until browned in places, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate, leaving fat in pot. Brown remaining beef; transfer to plate.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Swirl remaining 1 tablespoon oil into pot, still over medium-high heat. Cook onions until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring frequently, until caramelized, 1 minute. Add Worcestershire sauce and wine; boil until mostly evaporated.
- Return beef and any accumulated juices to pot with broth and tomatoes. Bring to a boil. Cover pot, transfer to oven, and cook 1 1/2 hours. Remove pot from oven and stir carrots and potatoes into stew. Cover and continue cooking in oven until beef is fork-tender and vegetables are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 1 hour more. Stir in peas; return to oven for 5 minutes more, just to heat through.
- Ladle stew into shallow bowls, sprinkle with parsley, and serve. Cooled stew can be transferred to an airtight container and refrigerated up to 2 days, or frozen up to 3 months.
OLD WORLD BEEF STEW
Hearty and delicious, a perfect comfort food for a rainy day or cold night. This recipe will fill your home with the aroma of great cooking. Great served with a favorite, rustic artisan bread. NOTE: Prepare as a crock-pot meal. Cook everything up that needs to be cooked, add the raw ingredients and liquid. Slow cook for 8-10 hours for an old world dinner after a long day's work. NOTE 2: With produce that absorb a lot of water such as celery onions and lettuce it is unfortunate to know that these vegetables pull lots of contaminants and pesticides from the soil and water that is given to them. For best quality (health wise) and taste please use organically grown produce.

Steps:
- * In a large pot fry the bacon till it becomes crispy and remove bacon from the pot to cool. Once bacon is cool crumble or chop into small pieces to use later.
- * Place the stew meat in the bacon grease to sear in the juices. The quicker your meat is browned on all sides the more tender your meat will become. Don't worry if the meat is still raw in the center -- it should be.
- * While the meat is searing, saute the onion and celery in a frying pan with 1 tbsp of butter and 1 tbsp of olive oil. Once the onion has become clear and/or browned on the edges add the garlic. Continue to saute stirring frequently until all the ingredients have caramelized. By doing this you release the sweetness from the ingredients adding a scrumptious flavor to your stew.
- * After the meat has been seared, cool it down by adding the entire contents of the boxed beef broth. Add your parsnips, potatoes, carrots and caramelized onions, celery and garlic.
- * Add enough water to just cover all the ingredients. Cover and simmer for 1 hour.
- * As the stew is simmering, saute the mushrooms in 1 tbsp of butter and 1 tbsp of olive oil. The key for perfect sauted mushrooms is room to cook. Once your mushrooms are sauted add them to the stew along with the bacon. Continue to simmer.
- * Once you have all the ingredients in the pot add the dry packets. Stir till well blended and no dry clumps are visible. Add salt and pepper to taste and continue to simmer to complete the hour.
- * Cool for 15 minutes, ladle into bowls or large plates. Garnish top with parsley and serve with your favorite bread and red wine.
