This stew was a disappointment. The sauce was too thin and the vegetables were overcooked.

The beef in this stew was a little tough. I think I would cook it for longer next time.

This stew is a bit bland for my taste. I would add more salt and pepper, and maybe some other spices.

I wasn't sure about the apples in the stew, but they actually added a nice sweetness and depth of flavor.

I made this stew in my slow cooker and it turned out great! I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning and it was ready for dinner when I got home from work.

This stew is also great for a make-ahead meal. You can cook it ahead of time and then reheat it when you're ready to serve.

I usually serve this stew with mashed potatoes, but it would also be good with rice or egg noodles.

This stew is a great way to use up leftover beef. I usually make it with pot roast, but you could also use steak or stew meat.
