    OMG, I just wanted to share and thank you with extreme gratitude for this recipe! My boyfriend begs for this stew weekly and got upset when I gave some to the contractors! It seems overwhelming with so many ingredients but now I see each time it's easier and easier and the steps actually add all the quality to it and it really shines! Thank you and Happy Holidays!
