A friend of my brother's made this for a New Year's Eve party. He prevailed upon her to give him the recipe and promptly emailed it to me, urging me to make this at once, which I did. He was so right! Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs lean stewing beef |
8 medium carrots, sliced thin |
6 medium potatoes, sliced thin |
2 apples, chopped |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 cup onion, chopped |
2 cups apple cider (use actual cider, not unfiltered apple juice, or the stew will be too sweet) |
Directions:
1. Place carrots, potatoes, and apples in crock pot.
2. Add meat & sprinkle with salt, thyme, and chopped onion.
3. Pour the cider over the meat.
4. Cover & cook over LOW heat 8-10 hours.
5. Thicken juices with flour/cold water mixture ( l-l/2 to 2 tbs flour & 2 tbs water), cooking on HIGH in slow cooker until thickened.
