Note
Do not add sour cream until the end of cooking to prevent it from curdling.
For a richer flavor, you can brown the beef cubes in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker.
This stew tastes even better the next day as the flavors meld together. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
If you prefer a thicker stew, let it simmer uncovered for the last 30 minutes.
