Beef‘n’Beer
Beef slow-cooked in a mixture of beer and water enriches and gives a nut-like flavour to the meat. The bread on top is delicious too.

- Cross-cut blade, our suggested cut, has a good amount of connective tissue which will melt and become tender when cooked slowly and make a delicious sauce
- Use a beer of your choice. A darker, full-bodied beer will make for a very rich sauce and is very much personal taste.
- Slow cooker method – cook on low for 8-9 hours or on high for 4-4 1/2 hours. 30 minutes before the end of cooking time turn slow cooker on to high (if cooking on low). Thicken sauce with a butter and flour paste and continue cooking. Serve with a French stick which you have halved lengthwise and spread with garlic and herb butter. Place under the grill to melt the butter.

Fantastic recipe, i have also added to this in the form of mushrooms and some chilies to give some heat. I also made pies using the dijon on the underside of the lids. Very nice.

This was absolutely delicious and very tender. I will make this again! I added a few vegetables for the last 10 minutes of cooking.
Sorry I forgot to highlight the 5 out of 5 stars before.

Beef
Preheat the oven to 170°C.Cut the beef into 2.5-3cm pieces and place in a bowl with a dash of oil. Season and toss to coat beef pieces in oil.
Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat and, in batches, quickly brown the beef on both sides. Transfer to an ovenproof casserole dish as you go.
Reduce the heat to low, add another dash of oil and the sliced onion. Cook onion until it softens and begins to colour, then add the garlic. Add the flour and mix well. Pour in the beer and hot water and bring up to the boil, stirring continuously. Add the herbs, nutmeg and vinegar and season. Pour over the beef, place on the lid and place in the oven.
Cook for 2 1/2 hours until the beef is meltingly tender.
Fifteen minutes before the end of cooking time remove beef from the oven. Remove herbs and discard. Spread one side of French bread slices with a little Dijon mustard and place mustard side down, on top of the meat. Push the slices down below the surface ensuring they are soaked in sauce, they will rise back to the surface. Sprinkle over the parmesan cheese then return beef to the oven and cook until the bread and cheese are golden.To serve
Serve beef with plenty of steamed greens or mixed vegetables.
