Good heavens, that looks delicious! When I think of stew, that is what I envision. Do you think that would work w/ blacktail roast?

[Echomules]

Thanks for posting the recipe, I'll be trying this one!

Looks fantastic...I am sure it would work just as well with beef...until deer season starts up.

[BOWHUNTER45]

I like cooking ....My salmon is off the wall too ...but I am sure we have alot of good cooks on here... The older you get the more you like to eat  thats why I have to walk 3 miles every evening so I can keep up with my boys 

[carpsniperg2]

Wife whipped it up while I was at work today  , to the stew and a good woman!!

[BOWHUNTER45]

sweet .. So I take it you liked it 

[go4itlab]

Supper good, she did a double batch, with some fresh baked bread. Nothing better than coming home to the smell of a good meal and believe me it smelled good. Stew in the crock pot and bread in the oven  God I love that woman! I owe a recipe to yah. I'll dig thru the family cook book and pass one on.

Sounds really good.  How many will this feed?  I'm considering making this for a meal in my elk camp this fall.  We usually have 6 to 8 guys and I want to be sure there's plenty for them.  If needed I can scale up your recipe.

[Wingin it]

My mouth is watering!!! I will be trying this recipe for sure!

A double batch was enough for me to have two big bowls, the wife one and still have a enough for me to have left overs for diner tonight (wife not included). In Elk camp, I don't know I like to eat. Especially if I've been burning up the boot leather. If your going to feed 6-8 hungry hunters I would times this recipe by 4, at least.

Thanks!  I'll follow that advice.  Having too much is much better than not having enough.  We hunt on the OP and besides putting on the miles we hunt steep ground with snow and rain most years.  Good stew when your cold, tired and hungry will really hit the spot.  Gonna need to make up a test batch here soon!

BH45,  I have to give you and your recipe props.  I tripled the recipe and took it to Elk camp for one of the camp dinners.  That fed 8 guys who had burned a lot of boot leather in the hills that day.  They cleaned the pot up so I would have to say it was well liked.  Recipe is a keeper for sure. 

[lokidog]

Sounds good, going to have to try this one.

[Boss .300 winmag]

Made this for dinner tonight, very good, be prepared it a little on the sweet side. 

I would make it again, but would only use 2 cups apple cider with one cup beef broth or other substitute.
