EASY BEEF STEW BAKED IN A CAST IRON DUTCH OVEN
This is in the oven right now and it smells so good, we can hardly wait for it to be done! No browning necessary. Company coming? Toss in another potato and carrot - this recipe is forgiving! Serve with Recipe #348286, hot and buttered. My youngest brother would find out I was making this stew and biscuits and he would invite himself over and eat me out of house and home. His favorite way to eat this stew was on top of buttered biscuits. I think with a salad and dessert this would serve about 6 but around here I would say it serves 4. ***UPDATE*** This recipe is for a cast iron dutch oven with a heavy tight-fitting lid. I've made this a million times and have had left-over gravy for noodles, rice, etc. Make sure you don't bake at any higher temperature than 300* and you don't use corningware or any other casserole. The heavy cast iron Dutch oven with a lid will prevent almost all of the evaporation of liquid, kind of like a slow cooker.

Steps:
- Put all ingredients into the dutch oven and stir to mix.

- You can thicken the gravy with 1/4 cup of flour mixed into 1/2 cup of water - stir and cook until on top of the stove until it is thick enough for you. We like it just the way it comes out of the oven.
- Serve with hot buttered biscuits, Recipe #348286 .

Steps:
- Trim any fat from meat cubes; set aside. Mix flour and seasonings together in a bag, put the meat in the bag too and shake to coat meat with the flour mixture. Place coated meat and all remaining ingredients in a 3-4 quart casserole or dutch oven and mix.
- (TRUST ME - there will be enough liquid - do NOT add more than the canned tomatoes!).
- Cover and bake at 275 degrees for 4 hours or until meat is very tender. This recipe makes four very LARGE servings (or smaller with leftovers) and is a great company recipe especially for those who can't cook or are pressed for time. Turn on or pre-set your oven to come on at 2:00 and you will be serving at 6:00. Serve with crusty bread or rolls, a green salad and a good bottle of wine. So easy and so delicious! Bon appetite!

Tips:
- Sear the meat: Searing the meat before stewing it helps to develop flavor and color. You can do this in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Use a variety of vegetables: The more vegetables you add to your stew, the more flavorful it will be. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and tomatoes.
- Use a flavorful broth: The broth you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your stew. Use a broth that is rich in flavor, such as beef broth, chicken broth, or vegetable broth.
- Season your stew well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of salt and pepper to your stew. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic, onion powder, or paprika.
- Simmer your stew for a long time: The longer you simmer your stew, the more tender the meat and vegetables will become. Simmer your stew for at least 1 hour, or even longer if you have time.
- Serve your stew with a side of bread or rice: A stew is a hearty and filling meal, but it can be even better when served with a side of bread or rice. This will help to soak up the delicious broth.
