Beef Burgendy
Do you like beef?
Because I love beef.
Obviously.
And if you like beef half as much as I do, especially the soft, tender, barely have to chew meat that Ben calls “soft meat,” then you’ll love this beef Burgundy.
Let me put it to you this way. I made this the weekend before Thanksgiving. Then I had to make it the day after Thanksgiving. Then we ate it for lunch and dinner the following day. It’s that good. It’s like crack in beef form.
Not that I know about crack.
Even if it’s straight out of the pot and steaming, I can’t help myself…When we were in Shreveport, a good family friend named Margaret made us this for dinner one night and it’s been floating around our minds ever since.
Hey Margaret, we’re coming back in a couple weeks before Christmas.
If you feel like cooking, I know what we could have….
Margaret’s Beef Burgundy
2 onions chopped fine in food processor
2 tblspn. vegetable oil
2 lbs beef tips (can use sirloin tip roast)
2 tblspn
1 cup beef bullion
1 1/2 cup Burgundy wine (Noble Pig, please don’t hate me. I grabbed a $4.99 pack of mini Merlot bottles that were about a cup each. I’m cheap.)
1/4 tsp. each of marjuem, thyme, oregano.
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 cup shredded carrots
Garlic (3 cloves)
1) Saute onions in oil.
2) Remove from pan and put aside.
3) Dust beef with flour and brown meat.
4) Put meat and onions in a pot. Add 3/4 cup of beef bullion, 1 cup of wine, all seasonings and carrots.
5) Simmer covered for 1 1/2 hours. Stir occasionally. If dry, add more liquid and stir for 15 minutes.
6) Serve over egg noodles boiled with tablespoon of oil.
Stay tuned, Invisible Friends! Tomorrow, we have a new Kitchen Magic, where Bizzy navigates the world of kitchen fairies. And this weekend, we’ll take a tour of Christmas in the Pond!

A-ha! I see the secret ingredient is 2 tablespoons of NOTHING, and now I’m going to add that to every recipe I make!
BTW, have you ever heard of cowpooling? It might be just for you…
December 4th, 2008 at 7:23 am
I have never had this dish! It does sound yummy, especially with that tender beef, yum!

Delicious dinner, Beef is always one of our favourites. Looking forward to hearing what happens to Bizzy. Jane x

Invisible friends! I like that. Thanks for visiting my blog(s). The book was good, the migas were good…and my son and his wife have a new little Chihuahua (spelling??), so I have a Grand-Chihuahua. Poncho.
The beef looks great!

Yummy! Adding to my dinners to make. I too like beef. Went Vegan for 2 years got prego with child #4 and went back to beef. Hmmmmm just never know.
Re: Housewives of the OC, I like Laurie too but my favorite is Tamra, I think I just want to look like her. I still wouldn’t want to liver there lives. Vicky drives me nuts! Okay my OC buddy gotta go.
Hugs, Bobbi Jo

December 4th, 2008 at 11:28 pm
That looks delicious Duckie! I have a few dishes that I make that are like crack to me as well . . . not like I know what crack is like either!!
December 5th, 2008 at 12:19 am
wow It’s breakfast time but I’d really give this beef a try right now
fantastic!
December 5th, 2008 at 2:25 am
Wow, this sounds great! I love having rich hearty meat sauces over egg noodles.
Are you sure you didn’t slip a little crack in there??
December 5th, 2008 at 4:11 am
Looks wonderful. My husband would love this!!!
December 5th, 2008 at 7:09 am
I make one similar from Tyler Florence but never posted it. I think the last time I made it I was put off a bit because we got tough meat! This looks great though! Love it over the noodles too.
December 5th, 2008 at 1:02 pm
This looks great….right up my street. (I adore soft, soft, meltingly tender beef)
December 5th, 2008 at 1:10 pm
Mmmm, we do love beef too. We usually buy half a cow from our friends who raise Belted Galloways; the flavor is incredible! The Beef Burgundy recipe looks wonderful.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
December 5th, 2008 at 1:19 pm
Yum! This looks delicious! Your dad's even smiling about the great big side of beef. I only buy cheap wine (<$10 bottle) to cook with too – I know what they say, but it's always tasted fine to me
December 5th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
I marinate my meat starting the night before in one full bottle of red wine, oh geez it’s good. I know this is an addicting dinner.
December 6th, 2008 at 5:46 pm
Sounds yumptious.
December 6th, 2008 at 10:54 pm
Mmmm, I love beef in just about any form, but the tender, soft kind with gravy is my favorite. Great looking dish!

Hi my dear invisible friend..I am officially following u now..lol..i mean ur blog! ur on my roll
December 7th, 2008 at 10:10 am
Yum! Finally catching up on the stories, too. I love them!
December 7th, 2008 at 10:27 am
Do I love beef? I adore the stuff, but there is a mini-war going between my hubby and I because I love soft meat while he doesn’t. More for me
. I’d eat this anytime. Wake me up at 2 a.m. for this and I won’t complain about it, on the contrary!!!!
December 7th, 2008 at 10:50 am
Thanks for your sweet congrats! I must try your recipe! Deeelish!

That looks really good, and reminds me of one of my favs Beef Stroganoff…maybe that will be on my menu in the next two weeks!
December 8th, 2008 at 9:18 pm
This recipe sounds delicious. Now I have a question (probably a lame one)…I have heard of beef boullion cubes that you put in water. Is there beef boullion liquid that is sold at stores or is it just beef broth?
August 12th, 2009 at 11:56 am
OH YEAH!!! This looks delish. Must try!
