  • Total Time: 2 hours
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 3 pounds beef chuck roast, trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • Fine sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 large onion, roughly diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 (12-ounce) bottle Guinness beer
  • 4 cups beef stock
  • 3 large carrots, cut into bite-sized chunks
  • 1 ½ pounds Yukon gold potatoes, diced
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Sear the Beef: Season beef with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pot. Add half of the beef and sear until browned on all sides. Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining beef.

  2. Cook Onion and Garlic: Lower heat slightly. Add another tablespoon of oil, followed by onion. Sauté for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add flour and stir well, cooking for 1 more minute.

  3. Deglaze with Guinness: Pour in Guinness beer. Scrape the bottom of the pot to release flavorful browned bits. Let it simmer for 2 minutes.

  4. Add Broth and Vegetables: Stir in beef stock, carrots, potatoes, tomato paste, bay leaf, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, and the seared beef with its juices. Mix well.

  5. Simmer Slowly: Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 1 ½ hours, stirring occasionally, until the beef is fork-tender and the potatoes are cooked through.

  6. Final Seasoning: Remove the bay leaf. Taste and adjust with extra salt, pepper, or Worcestershire sauce if needed.

  7. Serve with Garnish: Ladle the Guinness Beef Stew into bowls, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
