Crockpot Lamb Stew

Measurements are estimates:

  • Oil
  • 1 lb lamb stew meat
  • chopped onion ~1 1/2 c
  • minced roasted garlic, 1 tsp
  • Worcester sauce
  • beer -  splash
  • salt   pepper   allspice    bay leaf
  • 2 c chicken broth
  • chopped carrots ~1 1/2 c
  • chopped sweet potato
  • chopped potatoes, 2 small red
  • some chopped celery
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • a couple of radishes, chopped
Method:
  1. brown the meat in 1T oil, set aside
  2. add oil if needed and saute onion, garlic - salt & pepper, Worcester sauce
  3. de-glaze pan with beer and broth
  4. allspice, bay leaf (2 small)
  5. add everything to crock pot
Started on low 30 min? - added water since I couldn't see liquid and switched to high 1-2 hrs - switched back to low.  Total cook time, just under 6 hours.

In retrospect - the extra water - and maybe some of the broth - was probably a mistake (have to check crock pot instructions to see if it's OK to start without liquid up to top of veggies).  Needs more seasoning.

Made a lot.  Almost twice the butternut squash stew.

  1. Put three servings into freezer. I think it has improved on resting.
