Beef and Guinness Stew
"The great Irish Beef and Guinness Stew is easy to make but requires patience while it slow cooks! The Guinness Beer is the secret weapon ingredient in this, creating a sauce that has wonderful deep complex flavours. This is great made on the day but even better the day after!..."
