Beef Stew

Beef Stew

Typical beef stew is made up of beef (of course) simmered, or stewed, in a broth or gravy with a variety of vegetables. But, this is one of those meals where every recipe has its own special touch. Some recipes use cubed stew meat, some use ground beef, others use ribs or shanks. The varieties of vegetables are endless and some recipes include beans and pasta as well.
