The Best Irish Beef Stew

Edit
This has to be one of the best Irish stews, this may not be the most traditional recipe but it is certainly one of the tastiest!


This is by far the best stew I have ever made! The combination of Guinness beer and red wine just raised the bar on a flavourful stew. The house smelled wonderful cooking this traditional Irish dish; well almost traditional, I used beef instead of lamb or mutton.

I cooked my Irish Stew in the oven but this recipe also works great in the slow cooker. If using garden fresh potatoes you don’t have to peel them.  I serve this stew with fresh baked buns which are great for soaking up that extra broth left on the plate.
