    Looks good, but I don’t eat beef. Can this be made with chicken or something else? Just curious!

    This stew is amazing! I made it last night, and my husband and kids loved it. Will be adding it to our dinner rotation for sure!

    I dunno, my stew always turns out better than this. Maybe it’s the beef or the broth? Just felt like something was missing.

    I think the recipe needs more seasoning, like maybe some herbs? It was a bit bland for my taste. Gonna try adding thyme next time.

    Is 1.5 hours really enough? My beef was still tough. I had to cook it for 3 hours.

    Easy to make, but I think it needs more seasoning. Maybe some thyme or rosemary?

    Stew? More like a ‘Meh’ stew. Didn’t live up to expectation.

    I tried this recipe but used chicken instead of beef. It didn’t taste right.
