Crock Pot Beef Stew

delicious stew beef dinner
Thick and meaty with a little bit of a kick.  This stew is sure to please everyone!  Enjoy!











1 lb. stew meat, cut into 1 inch cubes
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1 bay leaf
Salt & pepper
Dried minced onion
Garlic powder
Paprika
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 (14.5 oz.) can beef broth
1 cup water
5-6 medium sized potatoes
4-5 medium sized carrots

Place meat in Crock Pot.  Sprinkle with flour, salt, pepper, onion, garlic powder and paprika (I use about 10 shakes of each).  Stir to coat meat with flour and spices.  Next, stir in Worcestershire sauce and add bay leaf. Gently pour beef broth and water into Crock Pot.  Cube potatoes (I cut mine in half and then quarter the halves), slice carrots and add to Crock Pot as well.  Give the ingredients a little stir to mix it together.  Cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 5-7 depending on how fast your Crock Pot cooks and how tender you like your veggies.  Serve and enjoy!
