Beef Bourguignon Slow-Braised Classic Beef Bourguignon in Red Wine Ingredients: 2.5 pounds beef chuck, cut into 2-inch cubes Salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 tablespoons olive oil 6 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped 1 large yellow onion, chopped 2 carrots, sliced into rounds 4 garlic cloves, minced 2 tablespoons tomato paste 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 3 cups dry red wine (like Burgundy or Pinot Noir) 2 cups beef broth 1 bay leaf 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 tsp dried) 1 pound cremini or white mushrooms, halved 1 tablespoon butter Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish Directions: Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Season the beef cubes generously with salt and pepper. In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and sear the beef in batches until browned on all sides. Remove and set aside. In the same pot, cook the bacon until crispy. Add the onion and carrots, cooking until softened, about 5-6 minutes. Stir in garlic and tomato paste, cooking for 1 minute. Sprinkle flour over the mixture, stir well, and cook another minute to thicken. Deglaze the pot with the red wine, scraping up the brown bits. Add beef broth, bay leaf, thyme, and return the beef to the pot. Bring to a simmer, cover with a lid, and transfer to the oven. Braise for 2.5 to 3 hours, until beef is fork tender. About 15 minutes before serving, sauté the mushrooms in butter until browned and tender. Stir them into the stew. Discard the bay leaf and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
