**Ingredients**

3 slices center cut bacon, chopped

1 1/2 pounds chuck beef, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour)

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 1/2 cups cremini mushrooms, halved or quartered

1 cup shallots, chopped

4 cloves garlic, sliced

1/4 cup tomato paste

1/2 cup dry red wine (*)

1 1/2 cups beef broth

1 1/2 cups carrots, cut in 1-inch pieces

2 sprigs fresh thyme

2 sprigs fresh rosemary

Instructions

**Render Bacon**

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to the slow cooker. Remove most of the fat from the pan, reserving the rest.

 

**Brown the Beef**

Toss beef with flour, onion powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and black pepper. Brown beef on all sides in two batches. Transfer to the slow cooker.

 

**Cook Mushrooms & Aromatics**

Add 1 teaspoon reserved bacon fat to the pan. Add mushrooms and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook 4–5 minutes until browned.

Add shallots and garlic; cook 2–3 minutes until soft and fragrant.

Stir in tomato paste, then transfer mixture to the slow cooker.

 

**Add Liquid**

Pour in the red wine and beef broth. Stir to create a uniform sauce.

 

**Add Herbs & Carrots**

Place fresh thyme and rosemary on top. Add carrots.

 

**Cook**

Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours or on HIGH for 4–6 hours.

Remove herb sprigs before serving.

Notes

• A dry red wine such as merlot, pinot noir, or cabernet works best.

• If choosing cooking wine, remember the flavor carries through the finished dish.

• Makes about 5 cups total.

 

**No Slow Cooker?**

Bake in a Dutch oven at 375°F for 2 1/2 hours (check liquid level after 1 1/2 hours).

 

• Serve over mashed potatoes, noodles, or crusty bread.
