Flemish Carbonnade of Beef
Ingredients
- 2 lbs beef chuck cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 large onions thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 bottle Belgian ale or beer (12 oz)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 bay leaves
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Season the beef cubes with salt and pepper, then coat them in flour.
- In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches, then set aside.
- Add the sliced onions to the pot and cook until they are caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
- Return the beef to the pot. Pour in the beef broth and beer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Stir in the brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 2-3 hours, or until the beef is tender.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. Pairs well with potatoes.
- Enjoy!
