Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds stew meat
  • 1 large golden beet
  • 1 medium sweet potato
  • 1 small onion
  • 3 carrots
  • fresh thyme 
salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 to 5 cups of quality bone broth or stock we use homemade chicken bone broth with amazing results.

Instructions

  • Brown the meat on all sides then place in the bottom of your Dutch oven.
  • Wash, peel and chop the vegetables and place on top of the meat.
  • Add the salt, pepper, fresh thyme and broth on top.
  • Cover and cook on low to medium low for about 90 minutes.
  • **The final cook time and temperature will depend heavily on how hot your stove top cooks, ours runs very hot so we have to cook on low and keep a close eye on it, sometimes adding a little more liquid to make sure it does not burn.
  • The size of the meat and vegetable pieces will also make a difference in the cook time. If this is your first time using a Dutch oven, take a few quick notes about the ideal temp and cook time so you’ll remember for next time!
  • The richness of the broth mixed with the hearty vegetables makes this a fantastic dish that is easy to prep ahead of time and will give you perfect leftovers.
