Slow Cooked Azorean Beef Stew Recipe

Ingredients

  • You’ll need a crockpot that’s at least 4 quart capacity.
  • 1-1 & 1/2 lb beef stew meat (or a nice cut of meat that you’ve
  • chunked into stew meat)
  • 2 cinnamon sticks (mine were about 3-4” long)
  • 2 bay leaves (I used 1 big and 1 small)
  • 1 & 1/4 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp allspice (I added a couple more pinches later on)
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (no......I swear stew won’t be spicy @ serving time)
  • 2 TBSP kosher salt (I’m not a salt eater so I started with 1 TBSP, then added more later)
  • 6 cups beef stock (can use broth, bouillon cubes & water, etc)
  • 1 & 1/2 cups baby carrots (or pared/chopped grown-up carrots, or grated carrots-you pick)
  • 2-3 medium sized potatoes (washed &) chunked into bite size pieces-peeled if you wish
  • 1 large or 2 small sweet potatoes (washed &) chunked into bite size pieces-peeled if you wish
  • 4-5 chopped green onions or 1 large onion chopped
  • 1 & 1/2 cups baby tomatoes cut in 1/2’s, OR 2 large chopped tomatoes
  • 6 or more peeled, smashed cloves of garlic (we’re garlic fiends, so I used the whole bulb)
  • (add-ins I plan to try: quinoa, parsnips, mushrooms, zucchini, cabbage & maybe a little turnip)
