Old-Fashioned Slow Cooker Beef Stew Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

This is an old-fashioned beef stew for the slow cooker. The stew is flavored with a variety of basic pantry herbs and seasonings, along with garlic, onion, and vegetables. The liquid is low-sodium beef broth, but feel free to replace part of the broth or stock with a good quality red wine. See below for the variations for more ingredient substitutions and add-ins. The seasoned beef will add more flavor to the stew if it is first seared, but if you are pressed for time you can skip that step.
