Ingredients
1lb(500g)Beef tips or stew meatcut into 1-1.5 inch pieces
Brown - Add olive oil over medium-high heat in a large pot or Dutch oven. Add the beef tips and cook until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes.
1 lb Beef tips or stew meat
Sauté - Add the chopped onions and garlic. Toss them with the beef and cook until they become translucent about 2-3 minutes.
1 large Onion, 2 - 3 large Garlic cloves
Roux - Next, add the flour and continue to cook, stirring constantly on medium heat. The flour will generously coat the beef and look lumpy. Reduce the heat to low.
3 tbsp All-purpose flour
Additions - Stir in the dried herbs, bay leaves, and cinnamon sticks. Add the balsamic, Worcestershire, and soy sauce, stirring to combine everything well.
Deglaze - Pour in the red wine and boil, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. Allow the wine to simmer and reduce slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
¾ cup Red wine
Broth - Pour in the beef broth and bring the mixture to a boil—season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the flavors have melded together beautifully.Pro tip - You may need to add ¼ to ½ cup water occasionally to ensure the beef does not stick to the bottom of the pan. There should always be liquid for the meat to absorb and become tender.
2 cups Beef broth, ½ tsp Kosher salt, ½ tsp Black pepper powder
Finish - Add the butter and combine well. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.Pro tip - The butter adds richness and a nice glossy shine to the sauce. But feel free to omit it.
2 tbsp Butter
Serve - Serve the beef tips over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles, and enjoy a hearty, flavorful dish.
