Took a break from my storm cleanup. According to our weather predictions yesterday was the best day of the week to squeeze in a cook. I gambled and went for it. I pulled out a recipe for Braised Beef Stew. Did my prep and while I was setting up the grills it started to rain. Did as I did my last cook and moved the grills in under the eves of the porch. As long as the south wind stayed in check, I'd be OK. Fortunately, it did.
Here's my ingredients. 2 lbs. stew meat, Montreal Steak Seasoning, celery, carrots, parsnips, fire roasted diced tomatoes, red wine, red currant jelly, bay leaves, fresh oregano, and cannellini beans.
Seasoned the meat and browned it, couple of batches.
The veggies.
After about five minutes, dumped in the garlic.
Then added the tomatoes, wine, jelly, bay leaves and the oregano sprigs and the meat. Raised heat and brought to a boil. Covered DO and moved it to another kettle and baked on some medium indirect heat for about 90 minutes.
Added the beans and let it roll for another 30 minutes.

Ready to eat!
This is one of the best tasting stews ever I've done. The meat was melt in your mouth tender. I like a little more juice in my stew and might add a little water to the recipe when I do it again. Thanks for looking everyone!
