This Slow Cooker Beef Burgundy makes for an easy weeknight dinner.

Beef burgundy was in our regular dinner rotation when I was growing up.  My Mom also made tacos, split pea soup, spaghetti, orange pork chops and pepper pot beef.  Beef burgundy was one of my favorites because I loved the sauce, the tender beef and the egg noodles it was served over.  

This is an easy slow cooker version of Beef Burgundy that you can throw together in the crockpot in the morning and let it cook all day.  I love it because I often have no time to make dinner when it’s actually dinnertime! Either that, or I’m too tired to get dinner together. I’m sure you can relate.

How to make Slow Cooker Beef Burgundy:

This recipe comes from a Pillsbury One Dish Meals Cookbook that I’ve had for a while. It’s a cookbook full of simple meals for busy people.

The only thing you’ll have to do outside of the slow cooker is cook the bacon. Then you will put the cooked bacon, beef stew meat, carrots and onion in the slow cooker insert. Next, you’ll mix beef broth, red wine, flour and spices and pour that into the slow cooker too. The slow cooker beef burgundy is cooked on high for the first hour. Then you’ll reduce the heat to low and cook for an additional 5 to 6 hours.

People have often asked if there is a substitute for the red wine if you don’t cook with alcohol. I’d say that in this recipe there is not a substitute for the red wine. It’s called “Beef Burgundy” because of the red wine added to the dish. It’s a big flavor component.

At the end of the cooking time, stir in fresh mushrooms, turn the heat back up to high and let it all cook for a final 30 minutes. While it’s finishing up, cook some egg noodles. Serve the delicious slow cooker beef burgundy over freshly cooked egg noodles and spoon the sauce on top too. Garnish with parsley. This is a fabulous dinner!

This recipe also works well using lamb stew meat in place of the beef stew meat.  My family likes it both ways.  I’m happy to add another good slow cooker recipe to the collection since good slow cooker recipes are sometimes difficult to find!  Enjoy!
