FAQ
Q: Can I use a different cut of beef for this stew?
A: While beef chuck is ideal for stew because it becomes tender when slow-cooked, you can use other cuts like round roast or brisket. Just be sure to cook the stew long enough for the beef to become tender.
Q: Can I make this stew ahead of time?
A: Yes, beef stew tastes even better the next day as the flavors continue to develop. You can make it ahead and refrigerate it for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stove or in the microwave before serving.
Q: Can I make this stew in a slow cooker?
A: Yes, you can make this stew in a slow cooker! After browning the beef and sautéing the onions and garlic, transfer everything to a slow cooker. Cook on low for 7-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours until the beef is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
