Southern Style Beef Stew image

This is how my mother in law makes beef stew and she is from Alabama. As southern as you can get. Do not use generic tomatoes, they make this bland. I use arm shoulder roast and cut it up cause some beef stew meat is too tough. You can also make this with turtle meat and call it turtle stew, that's what we do! You can adjust the ingredients according to your own taste. We love to eat this with buttered bread.

Overall, this was a good stew. The beef was tender and the gravy was flavorful. However, I found the recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices and herbs to give it more flavor. I also served it over rice instead of mashed potatoes.

This stew was a disappointment. The beef was tough and the gravy was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out right. I won't be making this again.

This Southern-style beef stew was an absolute delight! The beef was fall-apart tender and the gravy was rich and flavorful. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. I served it over mashed potatoes and it was a hit with my family. W
