Stew Beef Recipes Without Vegetables

Steps:

• Rub beef roast with garlic salt and black pepper. Place the roast in the bottom of a slow cooker.
• Mix Worcestershire, soy sauce, and red wine vinegar together; pour over the beef roast. Sprinkle onion soup mix over the beef. Pour water into the slow cooker around the roast, not over the top.
• Cover and cook on Low until no longer pink in the center and fork-tender, 4 to 6 hours.
• Transfer the sauce from the slow cooker into a saucepan on the stove. Heat over medium heat until bubbling and mix in cornstarch to thicken.

Steps:

• Heat the oil and butter in a pan and brown the beef. Remove the beef from the pan, throw in the garlic and onions and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Pour in the beer, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, sugar, paprika, salt and some pepper. Then return the beef to the pan, cover and simmer on a low heat until the meat is very tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. If the liquid level gets too low, add more broth as needed.
• Add the carrots, parsnips and turnips and continue to simmer until the vegetables are tender and the liquid is reduced, about 30 minutes.
• If the stew is still too liquidy, remove a cup of cooking liquid from the pan and stir in the flour. Add the flour mixture back into the pan and stir. Simmer for 10 minutes until the stew is thick. The meat should be very tender; if it's tough, let it continue to cook.
• To finish, add the parsley and stir through the stew.
