Solo Skillet Beef Stew image

This was written for the Solo Cook, however it illustrates a cooking concept rather than a detailed recipe, and the serving could be enough for two people if a side salad was included with the meal. Cooking is a creative sport, so the cook should feel free to change the amounts of spices, or maybe substitute carrots for the bell peppers. A large Cast Iron Skillet with a snug fitting cover seems to work best for me. An interesting variation is to add sliced mushrooms and 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg at the start of the cooking, and then stir in several tablespoons of sour cream just before serving.

This beef stew was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better. I would also recommend using a better quality beef.

This beef stew was a disaster! The beef was tough and chewy, the vegetables were mushy, and the gravy was watery and tasteless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my beef stew turned out watery and bland. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This beef stew was good, but not great. The beef was a bit tough and the vegetables were overcooked. The gravy was also a bit bland. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

I've tried many beef stew recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The combination of beef, vegetables, and herbs creates a wonderfully complex and satisfying dish. I also appreciate the fact that it's a one-pot meal, which makes clea
