BEEF IN BEER IN THE SLOW COOKER



Beef in Beer in the Slow Cooker image

Delicious tender beef cooked in the slow cooker with beer, shallots, bacon, and mushrooms. The Guiness® makes a lovely gravy without tasting overly strong of beer. This is quite a meaty dish so would also be nice with potatoes and carrots added. I serve this with crusty French bread to mop up the juices. Hearty and warming to come home to. Cooks in 5 hours in the slow cooker; however it would not hurt it to be cooked all day.

BEEF IN BEER

Serve with potaotes or egg noodles tossed in butter and chopped parsley.

Provided by Laura Calder

Categories     bake,beef,dinner,French,Main,slow cook

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 Tbsp beef drippings or butter, more as needed
1 Tbsp olive oil
3 lb(s) sirloin tip, cut into fat fingers
3 onions, sliced
4 clove garlic, chopped
Salt and pepper
2 Tbsp flour
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1-½ cup beef stock
2 cup beer
1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 bouquet garni (bay leaf, thyme spring, a few parsley stems)

Steps:

  • Melt the butter and oil together in a sauté pan and, working in batches, brown the beef strips on all sides. Remove. In the same pan, fry the onions until soft, about 15 minutes, then add the garlic one minute. Remove. (Check if there is fat in the pan. If not, add a good tablespoon of butter and let it melt.)
  • Add the flour and sugar to the pan and cook 1 minute to make a roux. Gradually whisk in the stock and bring to a boil. (At this point, turn the oven on to 325°F/160°C.) Add the beer and the vinegar to the boiling stock, and bring back to the boil, cooking until thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove.
  • In a large casserole, layer the onion mixture alternately with the beef strips, seasoning each layer as you go with salt and pepper. Tuck in the bouquet garni and pour the liquid over. Cover and bake for 2-1/2 hours. If you can wait a day before eating, cool the dish completely when it's out of the oven, and refrigerate overnight: the flavour will be even better when you reheat it.

BEER-BRAISED BEEF AND ONIONS



Beer-Braised Beef and Onions image

This hearty, warming beef and onion stew is flavored with Belgian beer, bay leaves and sweet paprika. A variation on a traditional Flemish carbonnade, it's rich and homey but still lively, with a ruddy color from the paprika. The very large quantity of onions adds sweetness, and also helps make the sauce velvety soft. Serve it over potatoes, noodles or polenta.

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 3h30m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon kosher salt, more as needed
1 teaspoon black pepper, more for garnish
6 bay leaves
2 teaspoons sweet paprika, more for garnish
4 pounds boneless beef stew meat, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
4 Spanish or very large yellow onions, thinly sliced
6 sprigs fresh thyme
4 sprigs fresh parsley, plus chopped parsley, for garnish
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 cups beef or chicken stock, preferably homemade
1 cup beer, preferably Belgian-style or brown ale
Flaky sea salt, for garnish
Dijon-style mustard, preferably extra-hot, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine salt, pepper, bay leaves and paprika. Toss meat to coat, then cover, refrigerate and marinate at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a large (8-quart) Dutch oven or other heavy pot, heat butter and oil over medium-high until shimmering. Working in batches, brown beef on two sides until dark and crusty, transferring to a bowl when browned (reserve bay leaves). As you cook, add more oil and adjust heat if necessary to prevent burning.
  • When all the meat is browned, add onions to the empty pot and return the heat to medium-high if you lowered it. Cook, stirring and scraping up the brown coating on the bottom of the pan as the onions release their liquid.
  • Continue cooking until onions are deeply golden brown and soft, 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, make a bouquet garni by tying thyme, parsley and reserved bay leaves together with kitchen string (or just throw them in the pot and warn your guests not to eat them).
  • Push the onions to the sides, then add tomato paste, coriander and cinnamon to the bottom of the pan. Cook, stirring, 1 minute, until paste is darkened and fragrant. Stir in flour, cook another minute, then add stock, beer, 1 cup water and bouquet garni. Return beef and any juices in the bowl to the pot, bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to oven. Cook until beef is tender, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours, turning it over halfway through.
  • If the sauce seems thin, remove the meat with a slotted spoon; cover with foil to keep warm. Return pot with liquid to stove and simmer until thickened to taste, 5 to 10 minutes. Return the meat to pot and stir to heat through. Serve from the pot or a platter. Garnish with chopped parsley, flaky sea salt, pepper and paprika. Serve with mustard on the side.

BEEF AND BEER STEW



Beef and Beer Stew image

A delicious beef stew that my dad taught me how to make - I added the beer on my own and you can replace it with another cup of stock. This stew - like most - is better when heated up on the next day. It also freezes very well.

Provided by Rogue Red

Categories     Stew

Time 2h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 medium onions, roughly chopped
1 lb stewing beef, cubed
1/2 cup white flour
2 tablespoons cooking oil
12 ounces beer, strong ale or guiness is good
1 beef stock cube or 1 lamb stock cube, dissolved in
1 cup water
1 vegetable stock cube, dissolved in
1 cup water
3 tablespoons tomato paste (or a half a cup of tomato sauce)
1 tablespoon ground nutmeg
ground black pepper
salt
1 packet green string bean, cut in half
1 packet carrot, sliced into circles or rectangular chunks
5 whole potatoes, cut into quarters

Steps:

  • Coat the beef cubes with the flour and add them along with the onions and cooking oil into the pot.
  • Cook this over a medium heat until the onions are softer (almost see-through) and don't worry about the flour turnig into a paste on the bottom of the pot the next step will see to that- just don't burn it.
  • Add the beer, beef/lamb stock and vegetable stock and stir until the bottom of the pot is clean.
  • Add the tomato paste/sauce, the nutmeg and some salt and pepper to taste. The more pepper you add to the stew the hotter it will be.It is actually quite good at a medium spicy level. You can also add some dried herbs if you like.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Turn the heat down and simmer at a low heat, stirring occasionally, for at least 1 hour.\ (You can't really overcook a stew.)
  • Add the vegetables (green beans, carrots and potatoes) and bring it all back to a boil- you can add as many vegetables as you like just use water to cover them if they stick out of the liquid in the pot. The more potatoes you add, the better the stew will be on it's own.
  • Simmer on a low heat for at least another hour (remember, you can't overcook a stew), stirring occasionally.
  • If, after an hour you find that your stew is too juicy, you can take the lid off and try to steam away some of the liquid or, for a quick fix, add a little cornstarch mixed with water to thicken it up (the directions for how to do this should be on the pack.)
  • Serve with rice, or as is if you have added a lot of potatoes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef. Chuck roast, brisket, and short ribs are all good options for beef in beer recipes. These cuts are tough and flavorful, and they benefit from the long, slow cooking time in beer.
  • Use a good quality beer. The beer you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the dish, so choose one that you enjoy drinking. Dark beers, such as stout or porter, will give the beef a rich, malty flavor. Light beers, such as lager or pilsner, will give the beef a more delicate flavor.
  • Brown the beef before cooking it in beer. This will help to develop the flavor of the beef and give it a nice crust.
  • Cook the beef in beer for at least 2 hours. This will give the beef time to become tender and flavorful. You can cook it for longer if you want, but the beef will start to fall apart if you cook it for too long.
  • Serve the beef in beer with your favorite sides. Mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and rice are all good options.

Conclusion:

Beef in beer is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and flavorful meal that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying dish, give beef in beer a try!
