Slow Cooker Beef Stew
This Slow Cooker Beef Stew is such a bowl of comfort. The beef is simmered with veggies in a richly flavored broth until the morsels of beef are fall-apart tender. All you need is a generous slice of homemade bread to go with it.

Ingredients
- 2 tbsp extra light olive oil (or high heat cooking oil)
- 3 lb beef chuck roast (cut into 2 inch cubes)
- 1 large yellow onion (diced)
- 4 large carrots (cut into bite size pieces)
- 1 lb Yukon potatoes (cut into bite size pieces)
- 1/3 cup apple cider juice ((NOT vinegar))
- 3 tbsp tomato paste
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp fine sea salt (or added to taste)
- 2 bay leaves
- parsley (finely chopped, to serve)
Steps
-
Preheat a skillet with oil. Once the oil is hot, add the beef in a single layer and saute until browned on both sides. Don't crowd the pan and cook beef in batches if needed. Remove and set aside.
-
In the same skillet, sauté the onion until lightly browned, adding more oil if needed.
-
Add all the ingredients to the slow cooker. Set it on high for 4 to 5 hours or on low for 7 to 9 hours.
-
Remove bay leaves, season to taste, and serve garnished with parsley if desired. If a thicker stew is preferred, see notes below on thickening the stew.*
