I made this recipe a few weeks ago and it was a huge hit.
As in, both kids and the hubby demanded more before bed kind of hit. I think this recipe would normally feed six but in this instance, it fed three people twice.
I only had the taste test samples.
This time I am making it while home alone. mwaaaaahahahahaha (my attempt at Doctor Evil’s laugh from Austin Powers)

This is a must try – I will probably leave out the white potatoes since we eat more Paleo/Whole30 meals but otherwise it looks awesome!

I’ve been adding beer to my chili for a little over a year now, love it. I can’t wait to try your stew. I’ll add it to my Pinterest board: Cookin’ Slow. Let me know if you’d like to pin other recipes there too. I love group boards.
