Beer-Baked Irish Beef
Love this slow cooker and how programmable it is, it has been a workhorse for me.
Recipe Summary Beer-Baked Irish Beef
An easy stew you can prep and let simmer for a few hours. Easy to prep the night before and toss in the slow cooker when you get home, for a good down-home meal. Serve with hot boiled potatoes. I have also cut potatoes into cubes and put them right in the slow cooker to save time and dishes. Works great!
