John D. McGurk’s Guinness Stew is just the thing for cold and blustery January weekends. Set a pot to simmer all afternoon and let the rich aroma fill the house. Come dinnertime, its hearty vegetables and rich, meaty flavor will warm you body and soul. – Katie O’Connor

I made this stew this weekend, and it is easily the best beef stew I have ever tried. I was able to make it in my slow cooker, set on high, in about 3 hours. It needed a little extra thickening at the end, but the flavor was phenomenal, and I would definitely recommend it.
