This stew is absolutely delicious...and so easy to make. – Reviewed by Kathleen B. Peters

It really turned out very well, but a little too bland; flavorless. I guess I didn't spice it up enough! Don't let that discourage you, though! It was delicious and so easy to make! – Anonymous Review

I browned my stewing meat for about 15 minutes with seasoned flour, THAN it turned out to be the best stew I ever tasted. This is my favorite! – Reviewed by Susan Mainville

I have been making this for years, and my mother made it before me. I add red wine along with the V-8 Juice. – Reviewed by VILIS AUNS
