-
In a 6-8 quart Dutch oven or heavy pan, combine the beef stew meat, chopped onions, minced garlic, and Worcestershire sauce.
-
Cover the pot and cook over medium-high heat for 30 minutes to begin tenderizing the meat.
-
Uncover the pot and stir often until the liquid evaporates and the residue in the pan turns dark brown, creating a flavorful crust.
-
Pour in the red wine and stir vigorously to deglaze the pan, releasing the browned bits from the bottom.
-
In a small bowl, smoothly mix the flour, sugar, dried thyme, and black pepper with one cup of the beef broth to create a slurry.
-
Add the flour mixture to the beef along with the remaining beef broth, stirring to combine.
-
Add the beer, potato chunks, carrot slices, chopped cabbage, celery, and bay leaves to the pot.
-
Adjust the heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
-
Cover and simmer until the meat is very tender when pierced with a fork, approximately 1 to 1.5 hours.
-
Season with salt to taste before serving.
