Beef Borgnoine

Made this once..... extremely good.  If missing an ingredient or two, not a big deal.  Leftovers are money and also freezes.

2 lbs. lean stew beef, cut into cubes
2 T. flour
2 T. butter
1 T. Olive oil
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 cups beef broth
1 cup burgundy wine
1 medium onion,  chopped
1 large carrot sliced  rounds)
1 clove garlic  minced ( I use the dried minced garlic ).
1 bay leaf
1/4 tsp. thyme
1/2 pkg. frozen pearl onions
1 cup sliced mushrooms (canned okay)
1 T. chopped parsley.

Toss the meat in flour, salt and pepper (in plastic bag) and brown in fat. 
Add consomme, wine, onion, carrot, garlic, bay leaf, and thyme.  Simmer 2 1/2 to 3 hours until meat is tender. Add parsley, small whole onions and mushrooms just before serving and simmer until hot. If you have cooked it the night before as I do, add those last 3 items the next day when you reheat.

If more liquid is needed during cooking, add consomme and wine in proportions of 2 parts consomme to 1 part wine.   Makes 4 - 6 servings.

Serve over Egg Noodles. 

It's basically pot roast with red wine, kind of like a beef stroganoff...... but can get a little tangy if burn the wine though.

Are your parents Chefs?

They enjoyed it I did not. Thats all there is too it.  I do not really like wine, bay leaf, or thyme. I also do not like hot carrots or mushrooms. I like a more basic stew with not as many ingredients

Sorry....... got a little crabby

We were licking the plates over here on that stuff.  Was one of the best things to come out of the kitchen over here in a while.

My crib in Atlanta.

Got the recipe from a lady and came home and made it.  My buddies said it was the best thing they'd eaten in forever.

Understand the wine and cooked vegetable dislikes though

Mushrooms go well with meat though.  They soak up the sauce.

And if you ever order a piece of meat in France.

Better tell them to hold the mushrooms cuz they are everywhere

I do not mind the mushrooms on a chicken marsala dish but I would prefer sauteed onions on a nice piece of meat. ya know? but all in all not a big stew fan but i certainly remember that one haha.

atl eh? No bbq? i would not be eating stew in the A-T-L

I have a few friends that go to school in atlanta they love the fried chicken haha

Chicken Marsala has wine.

BBQ is more than a science here

You are talking to a BBQ guy, just tried to mix it up a bit.

In fact.....

Marsala is wine.

Beef Bournoine is not a stew.

It is braised beef with teeny pearl onions and a couple hints of carrot.

It's basically fancy pot roast.

The meat is breaded and seared which thickens the sauce a bit which separates it from a normal pot roast.

You got a bad batch.

The shit is delicious.  Give it another chance.

I would post BBQ recipes but some of the few guys who post here would kick my ass........

JWK and Timber.

Hands down good BBQers

Not bad over here but those guys are pros.

Just so you know......... I placed in a BBQ contest last year 

But wouldn't even dream of messing with JWK and Timber in terms of BBQ.

If you want, straight and raw Q..... page Timber9.

If you want elegant Q, page JWK.

But Timber9 is not allowed indoors anymore.

Some type of Parole violation.
