Grandma's Baked Beef Stew Recipe Is the Ultimate Comfort Food by Donna John
Stew is just one of those dishes that puts a smile on my face. There are so many ways to make stew, too. In the oven, on the stovetop, in the slow cooker. This old-fashioned beef stew recipe cooks in the oven – and is grandma approved. It's the perfect hearty, comfort food meal for the fall and winter months.
This oven-baked beef stew recipe has your typical stew meat, onion, celery, carrots and potatoes, but also has green peas, which I love. The rich broth is made with red wine, beef stock and rosemary.
Here is your shopping list for this old-fashioned baked beef stew recipe: chuck roast, garlic, onion, flour, red wine, beef stock, fresh rosemary, bay leaves, celery, carrot, onion, potatoes and green peas. Serve this baked beef stew for dinner with a big loaf of crusty bread. I also like to serve a salad with it, just because. This stew reheats beautifully and tastes even better the next day.

Recipe Notes
- You don't need expensive red wine for this stew recipe. But do buy something you want to drink the rest of!
- You could change up the vegetables and make it your own. Green beans would be a great addition.
Here's how to make it:
- Heat a little oil in a large ovenproof pot. Season the beef with salt and pepper. Brown the beef on all sides in the hot oil. You will have to do this in batches. Remove to a plate.
-
Add the minced onion and garlic to the drippings. Cook, stirring, for about 2 minutes. Add the flour and cook about 1 minute.
-
Add the beef stock and red wine. Cook, stirring up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan, about 1 minute.
-
Put the beef back into the pot. Add the celery, rosemary and bay leaves. Bring to a boil, cover and place in a preheated 325-degree oven. Cook for about 2 hours.
-
Add the potatoes, onion and carrots. Cover and continue to bake for another 40 to 45 minutes.
-
Add the peas and bake another 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper before serving.
