Recipe Introduction
Tried and true - and wonderful! One note - if using quick cooking barley, don't add it to the crockpot til the last hour or two of cooking.
List of Ingredients
1 pound lean stew beef, cut in 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 ribs celery, chopped
2 medium carrots, diced
3/4 cup barley
1 bay leaf
6 cups beef broth
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
pepper, to taste
Recipe
In crockpot, combine stew beef with onion, celery, carrots, barley, bay leaf, and beef broth. Cook beef and barley soup on LOW in crockpot for 6 to 8 hours. Taste and add salt and pepper, to taste. You can add some corn and green beans as well and some minced garlic. A few mushrooms to this would be wonderful
I use beef soup or au jus base. It comes in a jar in paste form. I like it much better than bouillon or canned broth.
