Ingredients:
  • 1 1/2 pounds Certified Angus Beef ® chuck roast, cut in 1 - 1 1/2-inch cubes
  • 2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt, divided
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 4 bay leaves
  • 2 teaspoons dried thyme
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 (12-ounce) bottle Guinness beer (or comparable stout)
  • 2 1/2 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped

Instructions:
  1. Season chuck roast cubes with 1-teaspoon salt and 1/2-teaspoon pepper. In a large braising pot or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium high. Working in 2 batches, sear cubes until well browned; transfer from pan to clean plate.

Pour in beer, beef stock, Worcestershire and remaining 1-teaspoon salt and 1/2-teaspoon pepper; turn to medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Stir in reserved roast cubes, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer 1 hour.
