Congratulations! You have been to to Ship Full O' Pirates over 100 times! Just thought you'd like to know.

Even though our weather hasn’t cooled off enough to justify a stew, the sunlight has that certain angle to it that suggests Autumn.  I’m ready for some stew!

You’ll need:

• 2 – 4 lbs beef chuck, cut into 1″ cubes
• 1/2 cup flour
• s & p
• 1 qt beef broth if you have it, water if you don’t
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 bay leaves
• 6 potatoes, cubed
• 3 carrots, sliced
• 2 onions, chopped
• 3 stalks celery, chopped

Put the meat into the crockpot.  Sprinkle the flour and s & p over it.  Add the rest.  Give it a stir.  Cover and cook until the meat is tender, on low for 8 – 10 hours or high for 6 hours.

This would cost a bit more than $5, depending on the cost of the beef, but I’m serving a few more than 4.
