And now I'm stuck at work for 4 more hours daydreaming about it. It's gonna be so fucking scrumptious bros. I'm excited. What are you excited about? Also merry Christmas.

I put taters in my stew. It's an all in one kinda meal, no sides needed.

>>18722444
oh yes, most splendid. How about some bread to dip in your delicious creation?

>> No.18722456

I don't bake bread, but I got a fat baguette from Kroger just for it. Very crusty. Very dippable.

No no, like I said, it's "all in one." Bread, beer, cherry pie and coffee for dessert, it all gets chucked in the crock pot for 24-48 hours. Then I put the whole steaming mess in the blender to make a drinkable slurry. I suck it through an old recycled garden hose! Wow, it's gonna be great bros!

Actually it was very similar to Julia childs beef burgundy. Only I use diced Vidalia onions rather than pearl. I'm telling you it's a VERY tasty stew.

Based. How much did you make? Like a whole big pot, enough to last a week of leftovers? They say it always gets better over time. I enjoy seeing the little white disks of cold fat when it's cold, you know it's gonna be choice when heated back up.

So tell us about your stew brah. Mine is usually:
>USDA choice "stew beef", sliced more finely
>potatoes (cut but unpeeled), carrots (cut but unpeeled), onions (chopped, not too small)
>salt, black pepper, garlic
>"Better than Bouillon" beef broth base (flavor insurance)
>beer, ideally Guinness Extra, or maybe some dry red wine if I'm feeling like Mr. Hoity Toity Gourmet
Crock pot in the old days (4+ hours), pressure cooker in 2022 (1 hour). Sorted. Serve with bread and PLENTY of butter, maybe even a cheeky slice of sharp cheddar on the side. And more beer. Fukken SORTED mate. Winter is SOLVED.

this is exactly why i only put serious effort in weekend meals and. fuck not eating a good meal while it's fresh. and fuck making a good meal that you'll mostly get to eat in a reheated state.
during the week i just make sure whatever i make has a decent amount of vegetables, some starch to fill me up like rice or potatoes and some meat. and for dinner which is usually lighter, i try to have soup which fills the above requirements

No I don't, she was WW II and it was Julia Child, not childs.

It's pretty much just Julia Childs beef burgundy. Except I add a few russet potatoes along with the carrots and vidalia onions rather than pearl. I even make the beef stock. It's not cheap, a special Christmas treat. The stock alone took me almost a whole day.

The correct plural is Julia Children.

I agree with you on most things, but stew in particular is unironically better when reheated. Sometimes I make it at the start of a weekend off and don't eat it until the next day, despite having no plans.

Will you produce imagery of your stew to prove the validity of your statements?
