Maybe they are poor + have a big family. (I was 1 of 8 kids + my mom sometimes made it. I never ate it).


You missed out. Beef stew can be wonderful when the weather gets chilly.

Then you weren't that poor. I grew up poor and ate anything that was served. You never knew when you might eat next.

Peas go IN the stew, not on the side.

I agree with the bread and butter (or margarine for the dairy free guest) poster. Stew is a meal unto itself.

This. And when your stew is made with DRC and served with DRC, no one turns it down!


What is DRC?


Don’t really care.

OP here. Thanks for the replies. Dinner's tonight! Going with a side salad. And to the aghast poster, I had no idea serving beef stew in the middle of January is giving your guests short shrift!
