Story

Even though you may be tempted to just throw the meat into the crock pot without browning it, the browning is important. It creates the nice, rich flavor that this stew is all about.

As a matter of fact, in order to incorporate all that flavor into the stew, I like to pour my beef broth into the skillet that I browned the stew meat in before adding the broth to the crock pot. Just give it a little swish around in the skillet and scrape up all the browned bits with a spatula.

That little trick can really "beef" up a stew, if you know what I mean!
