Beef and Vegetable Stew


Beef and Vegetable Stew

6 to 8 boneless fancy beef ribs (nice name for roast beef) from my favorite HEB

Used 1 32oz vegetable broth another 32oz of water and two packs beef bullion

This makes a large batch in a 6 quart slow cooker for a big family or several days of meals for a small family.
