Slow Cooker Beef Bourguignon
Hey friends! Today I want to share my absolute favorite winter dinner – Slow Cooker Beef Bourguignon! I know the name sounds fancy, but it’s really just an amazing beef stew that will knock your socks off!
WHY I LOVE THIS STEW SO MUCH
I never thought I’d get so excited about a beef stew, but this one is special! The meat gets so soft you can cut it with a fork, and the sauce is thick and full of flavor. Plus, the big chunks of veggies make it feel like a complete meal.
My family goes crazy for this dinner! Even my husband who usually just says “it’s fine” about my cooking always asks when I’m making this again. That’s how I know it’s a winner!
I love making this on cold weekend days because:
The slow cooker does all the work
The house smells amazing all day
It’s perfect for cozy dinners at home
Leftovers taste even better the next day!
WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL?
This isn’t just any regular beef stew. What makes it “bourguignon” (fancy French word!) is that it uses wine in the cooking. Don’t worry – the wine cooks completely away, leaving just the rich flavor behind. So it’s totally fine for everyone to eat, even kids!
The wine does something magical to the meat – it helps break it down so it gets super tender. Plus it gives the sauce a rich taste that you just can’t get any other way. Trust me, it’s worth using!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED
. Let me tell you what to grab at the store:
Bacon – Just a few slices to add that smoky flavor
Beef – Get chuck roast and cut it into big chunks (or ask your butcher to do it!)
Red wine – Nothing expensive! Just regular cooking wine works great
Broth – I use chicken broth but beef works too
Tomato sauce – Just the plain kind in a can
Soy sauce – This adds a rich flavor that’s so good
Flour – To thicken everything up
Garlic – Fresh is best!
Thyme – Dried is fine if you don’t have fresh
Veggies – Big carrot chunks, baby potatoes, and mushrooms
