  1. This doesn’t turn out like the stew pictured. The meat doesn’t brown that well.
    I questioned the 1 T. of pepper so I added 2 tsp. which is 2/3 of a tablespoon, and it’s still so hot.
    I’d add a 1/2 tsp. if I make it again. I thought the richness of the sauce would hide the tomatoes, but not so. I told my husband to pick them out since he doesn’t like them.
    I should have crushed them in order to disguise them. We have tons left, I’ll be eating stew for a long time.

  2. Thank you for posting this recipe! We made this in lieu of corned beef and cabbage this year at my family’s restaurant. We followed the recipe to a T, including using the beer as the liquid. I don’t drink alcohol myself, so the beer was a bit overpowering, however, we sold out of the stew. It was a big hit!

  4. Thanks Julie! So glad you liked it! By the way I usually use 3 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes and it serves at least 8. Thanks! -Amy
