Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

The old fashioned way is often still the best. Vegetables with beef make a thick and hearty stew to feed your belly and your soul.
1 1/2 pound beef stew meat
1 tablespoon beef bouillon granules
2 tablespoons cooking oil
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 cups peeled and cubed potatoes
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup sliced carrots
1 teaspoon salt
1 medium onion, peeled and cut into wedges
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup sliced celery
1 can (16 ounce size) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 package (9 ounce size) frozen green beans
1 1/2 cup water
Cut the beef into 1/2-inch cubes.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil. When hot, add the meat and cook, stirring frequently, until browned. Drain off the grease.
Place the beef in the crock pot along with the remaining ingredients. Stir gently to combine.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 5-6 hours or until the beef is tender. Serve hot.

This was super easy!! I added parsnips with all the vegetables in the recipe, and a half cup of water, I cooked this on low for 12 hrs, it was tender and very tasty, willtry to brown the meat next time to see if there is a difference.
