    and actually, by far the worst lamb I've had was in the US. I've had some good lamb here too (Mori's dad does some great lamb dishes!), but one day the lamb was really not good. Really strongly tasted of, well, sheep smell.

    grass feeding is what does that

    corn fed is milder and smoother

    There's a difference between meat tasting like flesh and then tasting really strongly like the smell of the animal's barn

    Get a couple pounds of ox-tail or cubed stew meat. Slap it in a heavy skillet with a little oil. sear evenly as possible.

    throw in slow cooker.

    take a 1/4 cup of flour, 1 tbl salt, 2 tbl pepper, 1 tsp cayenne, 2 tsp worchestershire, 1 tsp paprika, and 2 bay leaves. throw this on top of the meat and stir.

    chop up 1 onion, 2 large potatoes, 2 medium carrots, and 1 stalk of celery, throw on top of the meat. Throw in 4 cloves of garlic, smashed.

    pour in beef stock til it covers.

    turn on low and go to work. Come back 10 hours later to a house that smells awesome.

    salt to taste, I use a lot of salt in my food because of nerve damage. I don't taste as well as most people.

    Uh hmm

    I don't really have a recipe per se, just formula? 2lb cubed stew beef, 2 T flour, salt, pepper, 1c red wine, 1c beef stock--coat beef in flour, salt, pepper and brown in pan. Deglaze with red wine and beef stock. Potatoes are good, carrots and onions too, maybe mushrooms, celery, green pepper, etc. I like bay leaf always, sometimes cayenne, chipotle and ancho powder for flavor, sometimes kharcho, sometimes just whatever's laying about in the cabinet.

    Layer beef, potatoes, onions, carrots, etc and spices in crock pot. Add 1 1/2 cups of liquid (reserve 1/2 c for later). Cook on low until you can't stand the delicious smells anymore, or 8-10 hours.

    Check at 6 hours: is the broth thin? If yes, take 2 T of the now-cooled leftover wine/stock mixture and whisk with 2 T of flour until smooth, add to stew and stir thoroughly. Will thicken nicely. Serve with bread (I like rye or sourdough).

    apply medium heat to onions

    stir often

  • AphostileAphostile San Francisco, CARegistered User regular
    Thank you Stale/Usagi, my crockpot excursions are usually pretty simple, so I'm looking to expand as I'm gone for around 9-10 hours a day anyways from home, might as well come home to delicious delicious food.

    Think I'll probably try both of those, but end up throwing in veggies/substituting regular potatoes with sweet potatoes.

    Nothing. Matters.
  • KwoaruKwoaru Confident Smirk Flawless Golden PecsRegistered User regular
    Ahhh I probably had the heat way too high the smaller ones started burning

    but I have more onions

    I wouldn't

    sweet potato starch reacts very differently, starch is starch to a certain degree, but it won't thicken correctly on the same timeline.

  • AphostileAphostile San Francisco, CARegistered User regular
    Hmmm...damn you starches!

    Nothing. Matters.
  • UsagiUsagi Nah Registered User regular
    Yeah, sweet potatoes/yams tend to fall apart much faster than regular potatoes when cooked for a long time also

  • Donovan PuppyfuckerDonovan Puppyfucker A dagger in the dark is worth a thousand swords in the morningRegistered User regular
    Could it be made to work by roasting them for a bit before you put them in the stew?

  • UsagiUsagi Nah Registered User regular
    They get smooshy when you roast them, so probably not

  • StaleStale Registered User regular
    not really, no. they just don't thicken as well.

    same for waxy potatoes. you need the big fluffy starchy russet potatoes.

    never tried flank in stew
    an interesting suggestion

  • ShortyShorty touching the meat Intergalactic Cool CourtRegistered User regular
    what is packaged as "stew meat" is typically just chuck that has been cubed for you

    I find that it's pretty tasty in stew

    Just make sure you slice it properly first, works pretty damn well
