SAILOR'S STEW

This is a hearty beef stew using beer and beef broth as its base. It's very yummy and I've never had any complaints about it. If you use older potatoes in this recipe they will break down better during cooking and thicken the sauce.

Categories     Main Course

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 11

2½ pounds topside beef with fat cap, cut into 8 to 10 generous ¼-inch slices
½ cup all-purpose flour, for dusting
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more as needed
6 medium (2 pounds) waxy potatoes (such as Yukon Golds), peeled and cut into ½-inch rounds
2 medium white onions, thinly sliced
Two 12-ounce bottles pilsner beer (such as Tannenzäpfle or Stella)
2 bay leaves
4 cups low-sodium beef stock
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
½ cup chopped fresh parsley, to serve
Assorted pickled vegetables, to serve

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Working in batches, place 3 beef slices in between 2 large pieces of parchment paper and pound with a mallet or heavy saucepan until ⅛ inch thick. Repeat until all of the slices are pounded. Set aside.
  • Pour the flour onto a large plate. Turn each slice of beef in the flour, coating both sides, and place in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • In a large wide Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the butter over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add a single layer of beef slices and brown both sides, flipping once, 4 minutes per side. Transfer the beef to a large plate and repeat with the remaining beef rounds, adding more butter as needed. Set aside.
  • Add the potatoes to the Dutch oven and sauté until golden brown, 10 minutes. Return the browned beef to the pot, along with the onions, and pour the beer over top. Add the bay leaves and enough beef stock to barely cover the meat and potatoes. Season with a generous pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cover and bring to a simmer, then transfer to the oven and braise until the meat is tender, 1½ to 2 hours.
  • Using a slotted spoon, divide the beef into bowls. Ladle the potato-onion broth into each bowl and sprinkle with the chopped parsley. Serve with the pickled vegetables.

SAILOR'S BEEF



Sailor's Beef image

This a great cold weather beef dish. One of my best friends from Sweden made this for me and I had to have the recipe.

Provided by Transylmania

Categories     Stew

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs beef round steak, thinly sliced
4 lbs potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1/2 inch slices
4 tablespoons butter
3 onions, sliced into 1/4 inch rounds
2 -3 cups beer
2 -3 cups beef stock
salt
pepper
bay leaf

Steps:

  • In a large skillet heat half of the butter. Brown the beef slices, seasoning with salt and pepper. When all beef slices are browned, set them aside.
  • In the same skillet heat another tablespoon of butter. Add the onions and saute on medium heat until transparent and slightly caramelized. Season with salt and pepper.
  • In a large stockpot place a layer of potato slices to cover the bottom of the pan.
  • Sprinkle on salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cover the potato slices with a layer of the browned beef. Season to taste.
  • Cover the beef layer with layer of sauteed onions. Add a bay leaf or two.
  • Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used. Finish with a top layer of potatoes.
  • Dot the potatoes with the remaining butter and then pour in beer and stock. You want half and half beer and stock, and you only want the liquid to just touch the top layer of potatoes.
  • Bring the beef and potatoes to a boil and then reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 45 minutes to an hour.
  • When the potatoes are cooked and the beef is fork tender this is done. Serve with good bread, pickled cucumbers and beets. A nice soup is good to start this meal.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, brisket, and short ribs are all excellent choices for beef stew, as they have a good amount of marbling and connective tissue, which will break down during cooking and make the stew tender and flavorful.
  • Brown the beef before stewing: This will help to develop a rich, caramelized flavor in the stew.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes are all classic stew vegetables, but you can also add other vegetables such as parsnips, turnips, or rutabagas.
  • Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of the stew, so it's important to use a good quality broth that has a lot of flavor. You can use beef broth, chicken broth, or vegetable broth, depending on your preference.
  • Season the stew well: Salt, pepper, garlic, and thyme are all classic stew seasonings, but you can also add other spices and herbs to taste.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour: This will allow the flavors to develop and the meat to become tender.
  • Serve the stew with crusty bread or mashed potatoes: This will help to soak up the delicious broth.

Conclusion:

Sailors' beef stew is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is a hearty and flavorful stew that is sure to please everyone at the table. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious sailors' beef stew that will warm you up from the inside out.
