Ingredients
- 4 slices thick-cut bacon
- 1 pound beef stew meat
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 medium onion chopped
- 1 celery rib chopped
- 1 cup carrots chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/3 cup red wine
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 4 cups lower-sodium beef broth
- 1 sprig rosemary
Instructions
- Chop the bacon into 1-inch pieces and add to a large pot. Turn on medium heat and cook the bacon until crisp, about 10-15 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the cooked pieces while leaving the grease in the pot. Set the bacn aside.
- Season the beef with black pepper. Add the beef to the bacon grease in the pot and cook until all sides are browned, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the cooked beef with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Add the onion, celery, and carrot to the pot. Cook until the vegetables start to get tender, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
- Add the red wine and cook until the liquid is reduced by half, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the tomato paste, broth, and rosemary to the pot. Add the cooked beef and bacon, as well.
- Cover and reduce heat to low. Let simmer for 1 hour, then remove the lid and simmer uncovered until the stew reaches your desired consistency, usually about 30 minutes.
- Serve hot.
