"The meat in this stew is the most tender I have ever had. This recipe is a combination of two that I put together, one which I liked the cooking technique and the other that I liked the flavor of. I would suggest testing your slow cooker to see if it cooks hot. Ours does, so 8 hours does it for optimal tenderness. My husband likes it served over plain egg noodles, but I prefer it by itself."
