How to make it

  • the night before:
  • chop the mushrooms into quarters
  • chop the onion
  • cut the carrots in to rings
  • add the onions, carrots, beef, diced garlic, wine, mushrooms, bay leaves, olive oil and thyme into a big bowl and let marinade at least 6 hours (i do it overnight) salt and pepper to taste.
  • after marinade
  • fry the bacon in a big pot
  • when the bacon is fried add the marinaded food (the beef should be a beautiful deep purple color)
  • coved and simmer for at least 2 hours, more isn't going to do anything just watch the carrots so they don't turn to mush
  • boil the potatoes separately, i sometimes quarter them and add them to the pot after they are boiled, they take up some of the marinade flavor.
  • serve and enjoy, you can thicken the stock with a roux, but i usually don't, the liquid goes great with the potatoes.
