smoker Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 GUINNESS BEEF STEW Step One: Purchase a kilo of cheap cubed beef, a package of potatoes, two 16 ounce cans of guinness, two cans of peas and a garlic bulb. Step Two: Put some form of oil in the bottom of a pot. Break up the garlic into pieces and throw into the oil. Step Three: Turn on the stove. This is important. I've forgotten this step in the past and wondered why the garlic was not cooking. Step Four: As the garlic browns throw whatever spices you may have in your kitchen into the pot. Like a handful will do. Step Five: Dump beef in. Stir it until it is brown on all sides. Step Six: Dump potatoes and peas in. Step Seven: Pour one and half of the cans of Guinness over the food. Chug the remaining half can of Guinness. Step Eight: Stir concoction until it boils. Then turn the heat way down. Step Nine: Wait five hours. If you are listening to music, stir after every eight songs (every two if you are listening to Pink Floyd's early albums.) If you are watching television stir after every episode. Step 10: Eat. Note: You can also dump some Worcestershire sauce and sugar in during the five hour wait depending on your personal taste and if you remembered to buy either product.

JohnC Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 A half bottle of red wine chucked in also enriches the flavours plus leave it overnight to mature then eat the next day with the remainder of the wine . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lvdkeyes Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 All stews and dishes with complex flavors benefit from being prepared a day in advance. It gives the flavors a chance to blend better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidTMike Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 This does sound yummy! I would throw in here my recipe for Special Brownies. But, I don't think appropriate. The Guinness is a great idea! Can't wait to try this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
