- 2 cups frozen peas
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- In a large bowl, toss beef with flour and seasoned salt; set aside.
- In a large stock pot, heat oil over medium high heat. Add beef and cook about 5 minutes, not stirring to often so meat browns on each side.
- Add carrots, celery, onion, garlic, potatoes, tomato paste, beer and beef broth. Give the stew a good stir and try to scrape up as many of the brown bits of bottom of pan as you can. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low, cover, and cook 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in frozen peas and cook 5 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- You can serve immediately but this stew is best when made a day or two ahead.
