Beef in Beer in the Slow Cooker
Samantha's Supper
"Delicious tender beef cooked in the slow cooker with beer, shallots, bacon, and mushrooms. The Guiness® makes a lovely gravy without tasting overly strong of beer. This is quite a meaty dish so would also be nice with potatoes and carrots added. I serve this with crusty French bread to mop up the juices. Hearty and warming to come home to. Cooks in 5 hours in the slow cooker; however it would not hurt it to be cooked all day."

Another outstanding success although I did cook for a little longer than the recipe stated. Made no changes at all - served with sweet potato mash and sweetheart cabbage

Very easy recipe and the meat was very tender. However, it lacked something in flavor. It needs just a bit of zip.

I made this exactly as the recipe said and it turned out amazing! I will definitely make this again. My family loved it and best of all, I have great left-overs.
