Guinness Beef Stew
Apr 19, 2025 07:49 AM
Originating in Dublin, Ireland, Guinness is a stout beer made from water, roasted barley, hops, brewer’s yeast and roast malt extract. Guinness is known for its creamy, velvety texture and rich flavors.
A deep, rich Guinness Beef Stew so flavorful with veggies + the most tender fall-apart beef. Serve over mashed potatoes. So good!
Why I love Guinness Beef Stew
Meat is fall-apart tender. With just over 2 hours of cook time (great for making this ahead of time with its long simmer), you’ll have an incredibly rich, hearty beef stew with melt-in-your-mouth, fall-apart tender beef.
So fancy yet so easy. This beef stew is perfect for weekend company or for the whole family to enjoy. It is so fancy to impress yet so stinking easy with its minimal hands-on time. Best served over the fluffiest mashed potatoes and a side of crusty bread for sopping.
Leftovers taste even better. Similar to lasagna, Guinness beef stew tastes better the next day, allowing the flavors to meld and develop further along with the collagen in the meat breaking down, resulting in even more tender beef.
Guinness beef stew freezes beautifully. Beef stew is one of those dishes that freezes incredibly well, keeping up to 3 months, perfect to have ready-made meals for months to come.
