CLASSIC FRENCH BEEF BOURGUIGNON
Classic French Beef Bourguignon is one of my favorite meals. Here's the recipe I use. It's the best one I've tried. It's from another site (allrecipes) and was submitted by Teri Smith. It's very easy to do but allow plenty of time for it to bake (3 hours total).

CLASSIC BEEF BOURGUIGNON
This dish is a labor of love. If you make it, you will be nicely rewarded with tender chunks of beef, onion, mushroom, and carrot in a cognac and red wine sauce. I think this is the quintessential French dish. Just the smell of it makes me want to don a beret and run out in search of croissants and the Eiffel Tower. We usually serve it with some mashed or roasted red skinned potatoes and a nice salad. For the wine, I like to use a spicy red zinfandel. A nice hint for using leftover tomato paste - Freeze it in an ice cube tray, pop the cubes out into a plastic freezer bag, and return them to the freezer. Just take a cube out whenever you need some. Another nice hint - To slice mushrooms quickly, use an egg slicer.

Steps:
- Tie the rosemary and thyme together using the chives to make a bouquet garni. Set aside.
- Trim the fat from the beef roast and cut into 1 1/2 to 2 inch cubes. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large dutch oven over high heat until hot, taking care not to burn the oil. Carefully add the meat and brown on all sides.
- Once the meat is nicely browned and the liquid is gone from the pan, add the flour and toss to coat the meat.
- Slowly add the cognac, stirring constantly and scraping up the yummy bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Gradually add the wine, stirring constantly and continuing to scrape the pan to loosen the browned bits. Add the beef stock, tomato paste, and bouquet garni. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until most of the alcohol is cooked off and the sauce is thickened. Cover and simmer over low heat for one hour.
- Cut the onion into large pieces (about 1 to 1 1/2 inches square). Add the pinch of sugar, onion, mushrooms, garlic, and carrots to the pot. Stir, cover, and simmer over medium-low heat for 30 minutes or until the vegetables and meat are tender.
- Remove the bouquet garni. Season with the salt and pepper to taste.
- Enjoy!
BOEUF EN DAUBE - CLASSIC FRENCH BEEF BURGUNDY STEW (BOURGUIGNON)
Rich, savory stew of prime beef in red wine and cognac with traditional French herbs, pearl onions, garlic, mushrooms, bacon and dried orange: a French classic! A rustic country bread for mopping the juices, a tossed green salad, a platter of cheeses, and a nice bottle of red wine are all you need to round out this fabulous meal in true French style. Bon appetit! Adapted from Williams-Sonoma. Notes: Can be made in the crock-pot. I like to make this in advance, as it tastes better the second day. Occasionally I've reduced the marinade time to just an hour or two, and it still turns out fine. Freezes and reheats beautifully, and leftovers make a lovely shepherd's pie see my recipe #355446 #355446.

Steps:
- In a large non-reactive bowl, combine beef, Cognac, cloves, garlic, onions, carrots, celery, bay leaf, sage, thyme, parsley, 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper, orange peel, wine, and mushrooms. Cover and refrigerate overnight or for up to 2 days, stirring from time to time.
- Bring the meat and vegetables to room temperature. Drain, reserving the marinade.
- Blot the beef and veggies dry with paper towels.
- Preheat oven to 325F/175°C.
- In a large heavy oven proof dish (such as a cast iron dutch oven or Le Creuset), fry the bacon over medium heat until it renders its fat, about 3-5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to paper towels and reserve.
- Working in batches so as not to overcrowd the pan, add the meat and vegetables to the fat in the pan, and brown them on all sides over medium heat, seasoning with salt and pepper as they brown, about 7 minutes per batch.
- Transfer to a platter. Add the marinade to the pot, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to medium heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced by one-third, about 8 minutes. Skim off the foam from the surface. Add the stock or consomme, and simmer another 8 minutes, until reduced again by one-third. Stir in the pinch of sugar and the tomato paste, (and add the diced tomatoes and green olives now, if using).
- Return the meat, vegetables and reserved bacon to the pot. Cover and bake in the oven until the meat is tender, 2 1/2-3 hours. -OR- alternately, at this stage you can cook in the crock-pot on LOW heat 8 to 10 hours, or on HIGH heat 4 to 6 hours.
- Serve with a rustic bread for mopping the juices, along with a green salad and a platter of cheeses.
- Freezes and reheats beautifully. Leftovers will make a lovely Cottage-Shepherd's Pie a la Provencale, see my recipe #355446.

- Cut the meat into 4cm (1.5 inches) cubes. Take off any excess fat. In a bowl, add the meat, red wine, garlic and the bouquet garni. In this recipe, I used parsley, thyme and French tarragon.
- For maximum flavour, the beef should be marinated the day before, leaving the beef to soak up all the flavours overnight. If time isn't on your side, give the beef at least three hours.
