How do you do your stew? What do you put in yours? Mine is the basic
brown gravy, beef cubes, carrots, potatoes, peas and a few tiny
onions.

Albertsons had a great sale going and specials for those folks that
used their app. I also got a picture perfect chuck roast for pot
roast. If there had been a smaller roast I would have gotten that for
beef stew. I've had beef stew simmering in the back of my mind for
several weeks now.
