Thank you for such a thorough video. I usually brown the onions, carrots and celery for additional flavor before adding them in. But I love your method as well! Sometimes I leave out the potatoes and then serve the stew over mashed potatoes - a family favorite!

I love how calm and present you are when cooking. Most of the time I come across videos and they’re racing across the kitchen, speed talking to the point that robs you of the educational experience. You are such a pleasure to watch! 🤗

The joy you express when plating the final product! You love what you do and it shows. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, wisdom, and love with us!

This is an excellent cooking video! I love how thoroughly the process is explained, especially the “Why” things are done the way they are. The butter & flour ball is a new one for me...loved it!

Mary, Mary...... I've made stew ever since a teenager, I love stew, in fact we had it last week. I live in Washington state so it's been cold for a while. Anyway, I have never used port and never served it over egg noodles, that sounds delicious to me. I wanted to tell you that last night I made your recipe for pork chops with onions and apples and your german potato salad..oh my, so delicious, all your subscribers need to make that. I didn't do the cabbage we had other veggies I needed to use up. There is only 2 of us and I made 3 chops, but since they were pretty thick we only had 1 and a half, there is plenty for a repeat for tonight. Again, really good. Love to you, Charlotte .

Love these videos! I love the positive nurturing that comes through on the videos! It’s like having my mother in the kitchen!❤️

The stew looks delicious Mary. Some days I make one. Everything goes in and not many dishes to wash. So pleased I'm back. Thank you for sharing Mary xxx

Thanks for explaining the wine added. I never added it. Will definitely add the suggested substitutes next time to help with gut digestion

You blew my mind with the butter-flour ball trick! I will definitely try that next time. To thicken a stew, I would always put some milk and flour in a jar, shake vigorously then pour it through a small sieve into the stew and stir it in. But your method looks so much easier with less mess. And thank you for the tip about not using steak to make a stew because it will get tough. I never new that! I was actually going to do that tonight because the steak I got from my grocery store’s curbside pickup wasn’t marbled at all and I didn’t think it would be very good served as steak. I think I’ll marinate it and use it in a stir fry instead. Another great video, Mary. Thank you!

Miss Mary, that looks delicious. My family love my homemade beef stew and dumplings that i have been makingfor 45 years now and you are right the cheeper the cut of beef the better. Thank you for sharing and God bless you and yours.

I haven't made beef stew in years, but I feel inspired to do so now! BTW: we don't drink either, but I often cook with wine. I buy boxed wine that can remain on the counter or cabinet for months after having been broached. My favorite is Black Box's Merlot.

I made this beef stew yesterday exactly how you described and it was so delicious! Cooking the meat as you said surprised me that it was so tender! Didn’t have to cook forever! I went to butcher for the tallow for which I’ve never used! Excellent recipe! Thank you!

Hi Mary! I love your recipes! My husband wanted to make beef stew and I suggested he watch your video. He is preparing right now, so we will let you know how it turns out! Your videos are always fun and informative, thanks so much for the tips!

I don’t cook much but it’s always a treat watching your videos. I shared your channel with my daughter who enjoys cooking.

Oh yeah! That is beef stew! I try differing things depending on my taste and what's a availible. A left over cup of strong coffee, turnips, love the halved mushrooms, green beans, just for examples. Great video. God bless all here.

I love the flour butter ball trick! I’ll try it. Love this thoroughly educational video. Thank you!

Yum have been making beef stew for years never knew about the acid like apple cider vinegar. Will be using this tip to deglaze. 💖💖

Thank you so much for the tips and detailed steps, really helpful for novice like me

I made this recipe 2 days ago and it turned out really nice. My son enjoyed it as dis my wife. Thanks for teaching. God Bless.
