How To Make burgundy beef/venison
-
Step 1Cut beef or venison into 1-inch cubes. Heat butter and olive oil in large pot, until melted. In another small frying pan, fry chopped bacon until done and set aside.
-
Step 2Coat meat with flour and add meat to pot. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Step 3Cook meat in oil/butter over medium heat until nice and brown.
-
Step 4Stir in broth, catsup, seasonings, garlic and burgundy. Everything except the bacon, vegetables and noodles. Bring to a boil, turn down heat to low, cover with lid and simmer for about 1 1/2 hours.
-
Step 5If necessary, stir in additional broth and burgundy (1 part broth to 2 parts burgundy). I just added more water. (about 2 cups)
-
Step 6Add the cooked bacon, (I added the grease from bacon too) mushrooms, carrots and onions. I would add the potatoes at this time also and anything else I missed. I added a few left over veggies I had on hand. Simmer for 3 hours or until meat and vegetables are tender. Stir as needed so the meat does not stick to bottom of fry pan. Add additional water to cover the vegetables, if needed.
-
Step 7I added a few leftover veggies. I also added 2 large handfuls of uncooked egg noodles to meat and veggies about 20 minutes before dinner (these are thick noodles and need that amount of time to cook).
-
Step 8I also served with some leftover rice that I heated up.
