The BEST Slow Cooked Beef Burgundy aka Beef Bourguignon

This Beef Burgundy or Beef Bourguignon is the ultimate French comfort food. Chunks of beef pieces bathed in burgundy wine are cooked long and slow with herbs and mushrooms until they are fork tender and just melt in the mouth. Having made this in the slow cooker, stovetop as well as oven I’ve given you all the option below.

Beef burgundy as it’s also called Beef Bourguignon in French is a stew prepared in braised beef and red wine. Traditionally they used Burgundy wine that’s why often this dish is called Beef Burgundy instead of its original name, Beef Bourguignon. I called it Beef Burgundy because I really am terrible with French pronunciations.

The slow-cooked meat was often used in olden days to soften tough cuts of meat. Though this started off as a peasant dish today it’s at the heart of French cooking and often you will find it at some very exotic high-end French restaurants.

An experience to remember

Beef Bourguignon is a very special dish for me. I’ve eaten it and made it for so many years! But the best one I had was in Paris at a small fine dining restaurant with my husband (then boyfriend). I clearly remember they had beef Bourguignon on the menu and when our server recommended we try the beef bourguignon? I simply said – ‘Nah I’ve eaten and made that so often”. His reply was – ‘No this is the best Beef Bourguignon you will ever taste madam!”

Of course, I did order the Beef Bourguignon and guess what? It was by far the best I’ve ever eaten!! And not like the ones I’m used to with carrot and onions. This one was different.
I asked to compliment the chef who very graciously came to our table, sat and chatted. Not comfortable asking him for the recipe I very politely complimented him and said I wish my  Beef Burgundy came out half as good as this. I add carrots and onions and lots more herbs just like the traditional recipe. This is what he told me which actually changed my view of cooking from that day on.

The Chefs words

He said in an exotic French accent- “Beef Bourguignon is not about the carrots and onions and herbs. It’s about the beef and the burgundy! Everything else is added to the flavor and enhance these two ingredients. When you cook you must first read the recipe and find out what is the true spirit of this recipe. What makes the star of the show in this recipe? Then add and minus what will flavor and enhance that star. Like there is the only one-star actor and many many extra artists that dance around him. You know who they are – No! Because they are there to make the actor look good!

Lesson learned

After that my view of cooking had changed completely. I never took a recipe as the Bible truth. I already had a great foundation from my mom and I always tried to follow her recipes. That had changed now and I started to explore and enjoy my cooking even more.

Beef Bourguignon was never the same. Every time I tried it I tweaked it so I could achieve that same soft tender juicy and yet smooth flavor. I’ve made so many Beef Bourguignon over the years and I have tried so many different cooking methods too. They all work great. |
The one I love most and swear by is the oven method. I find cooking in the oven just makes it perfect!! The right consistency and texture of the sauce, as well as the meat, cook until fork tender. The mushrooms just melt in the mouth.

Let’s talk ingredients and Substitutes (Save/Pin)

  • Beef – When slow cooking it’s great to use cheap cuts of meat that can endure and benefit from the long and slow cooking. So go ahead and use what you find affordable. I love to use Chuck or shoulder which again does great in slow long cooking. You want a meat that has good marbling of fat as this fat then when cooked over a long time gives the sauce that gelatin thickness which is absolutely amazing.
  • Vegetables – I only use mushrooms as the main vegetable but you are free to use carrot and pearl onions as was done in a traditional Beef Burgundy. I prefer a thick sauce so I actually avoid vegetables that will dilute the thickness of my sauce. I even saute the mushrooms until all their juices are dried out. It’s a personal preference but I highly recommend you try it at least once.. The resulting flavor is so much richer and thicker.
  • Herbs – Traditionally a bouquet garni is used which is a combination of herbs. There are many variations of a bouquet garni but most common you will find parsley, thyme, bay leaves, sage leaves, celery stalk as some of the main herbs in there. I am today only using thyme, sage and bay leaves. I think that alone is plenty of flavors.
  • Ginger – I know!! traditionally there is no ginger in Beef Bourguignon but I love to flavor red meat with ginger and you must trust me when I say.. don’t omit it!! its just add so much depth of flavor.
  • All-purpose flour – You can add cornflour/cornstarch if you prefer. The flour helps sear and brown the meat on all sides as well as helps thicken the sauce.

  • A word on Bacon

 I have tried both with and without bacon. Here in Israel bacon is as expensive as gold so often I just do without it. Unlike the traditional beef burgundy where the low cuts of beef were loaded with lard (pig fat) today, we do not really need to add so much fat. If you buy a good meat with a decent marbling that extra bacon fat is unnecessary.

    I just couldn’t resist — I showed Hubby the picture of your Burgundy Beef and said I wanted that next weekend. It looks so good and we are very fond of ginger. We always have it on hand. In fact, there are several marinades we make that uses ginger. We don’t usually have burgundy in the house but we’ll have to get a special bottle just for the beef. And we may not have all of our kitchen equipment, we do have our slow cooker.

    What a great story!! I would have enjoyed asking to speak to the chef too. I’ve never made the French version — more the Italian. And I always saute mushrooms first. If they are browned first their taste is so much better. It is an extra step but one well worth it. I’m looking forward to trying your recipe. In fact, I may try it with our venison.

      Thank you Marisa. I didn’t know there was an Italian version of this too! How interesting!! I do caramelize the mushrooms until all their liquid is evaporated in the onions and sugar.
