This hearty beef stew is full of thick chunks of beef, potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions and tied together with some diced tomatoes and herbs in a savory gravy. I like serving it with a crusty loaf of no knead artisan bread or a pan of steaming hot skillet cornbread. 
It’s your classic meat and potato dish that is warm and comforting and cozy. It fills you up and feels like home.

Ingredients

• 3 lbs beef stew meat
• Olive oil
• 1/2 cup all purpose flour
• 4 cups beef broth
• 6-8 cups water
• 1 large onion chopped
• 4 stalks celery sliced
• 4 large carrots sliced
• 4 russet potatoes peeled and diced
• 28 oz can petite diced tomatoes
• 2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 2 tsp garlic powder
• 2 tsp oregano

Instructions

• In a large pot, brown stew meat in olive oil.
• Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Once mostly cooked, about 10 minutes or so, add the flour and stir well as it browns a little. A nonstick pot works best for this stew to keep it from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
• Add the beef broth, water, onion, celery, carrots, and potatoes and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano.
• Bring to a simmer and cook till veggies are soft, about 30 minutes. Add the diced tomatoes and simmer for a couple more minutes to let the flavors blend.
• Serve with skillet cornbread or a rustic loaf of crusty bread.
