Beef Irish Stew Recipe - Tasting Table

While this stew isn't too difficult to make, there's a fairly long list of ingredients. You'll need stew beef, though you can substitute lamb, if you prefer. The vegetables you'll need are a yellow onion, garlic, potatoes, carrots, and celery, while you'll use bay leaves and thyme to season the stew. Other ingredients include butter, flour, olive oil, beef broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and beer — stout is the preference (Irish or otherwise).
