Picked up a package of small beef round steaks a while back & figured they would make a good stew. I took the beef, while still frozen, and put it in the smoker with some cherry pellets for aboot an hour & a half...
After the smoke I cut up the beef into aboot 1 inch pieces & hit them with flour, s&p, garlic powder & a bit of thyme. Then browned them in a pan & put the pieces in the slow cooker with carrots, beef broth & overexposed taters & dried onion...
Unfortunately, after I was done with the pan I stuck it in the sink to wash up. After soaping up the pan I realized I should have deglazed the pan & added it to the mix... Bogey!!! I ended up making a roux with a bullion cube to compensate. Here's the main players...
I didn't really get much of a smoke flavor, you had to think aboot it to taste it. Maybe some hickory pellets next time... Here we are in the bowl after aboot 6 hours in the slow cooker...
After all was said & done, it made for a rib-stickin' good meal. Thanks for stopping by...
