Equipment

  • Dutch oven

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds beef stewing meat/chuck roast fat trimmed off and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil more if needed
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 yellow onion sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 1 shallot finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons tapioca starch, cornstarch, or all-purpose flour
  • 5 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme finely chopped or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 3 large carrots peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 medium Yukon Gold potatoes peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped, for garnish
  • crusty bread for serving

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • In a bowl, toss the beef with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the avocado oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook the meat in batches until well browned, about 3 minutes per side. Set the beef aside.
  • Add the balsamic vinegar to the pot and scrape up the browned bits from the bottom. Stir in the onion, garlic, and shallot, and cook until the onion is translucent, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and ketchup.
  • Add the beef with accumulated juices back to the pot. Sprinkle with tapioca starch and stir for 1 minute. Add beef broth, red wine, bay leaves, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Bring the stew to a boil, cover, and bake for 1 ½ hours. Add carrots and potatoes, and cook until the meat is tender, about 1 hour. Discard bay leaves and season if needed.
  • Serve garnished with parsley and with crusty bread.
