Smoked Beef Stew has delicious flavors and hearty ingredients. It will fill you up and warm you up on a cold winter day. If the thought of a tender chuck roast that falls apart in your mouth makes you drool, you'll love this recipe.
Preheat Pit Boss to 225°F. Chuck roast works well with smoky flavors. For this reason, we suggest using mesquite wood chips or something else with a strong aroma. Pecan, oak, and hickory are other good options.
Cube the beef and season with salt and pepper. Beef cubes should be about 1-inch pieces.
Place onto a baking sheet, and smoke for 45 minutes.
Heat oil in a Dutch oven over high-medium heat.
Brown all sides of the beef cubes in the Dutch oven. You may want to brown the beef in batches if it won't all fit in the pot.
Add minced garlic and chopped onion. Saute for 5 minutes until softened.
Toss in carrots, celery, bay leaves, beef stock, and beer.
Cover the Dutch oven and cook for about 2 hours. Use medium heat so the stew is simmering.
Add potatoes and parsley. Cook for about 45 minutes until the potatoes are soft.
Serve and enjoy!
