Haven't cooked beef stew for a long, long time. This stuff was popluar back then.
I used a three lb chuck roast (trimmed of silver skin), 3 large carrots, 1lb of small gold potatoes, 3 shallots, 1 Spanish onion, 3 cups beef stock, 1 cup cab sauv, 3 tbsp red wine vinegar, salt pepper, bay leaf. Brown the beef of course, reserve, deglaze the pot with the red wine and red wine vinegar & then stock, boil, simmer with the beef 1 & 1/2 hours, the add the veg, cook on low heat another hour.
Veg a little firm but meat is butter soft.
Serving over brown rice.
