Crock Pot Seasoning Mix: Hearty Beef Stew

Crock Pot Seasoning Mixes are new in grocery stores and they are a great time saver for busy cooks.  There are currently three mixes available:

These were recently featured in Family Circle Magazine as a “Big Hit”….and I agree!

I reviewed the BBQ Pulled Pork Seasoning mix under a separate post:  BBQ Pulled Pork Seasoning Mix Review .  I really loved the BBQ Pulled Pork Seasoning Mix and was just as pleased with the Hearty Beef Stew Seasoning Mix.  The mix produced a stew with a deep and hearty flavor that simmered in the crock pot all day.

I followed the directions on the packet for the beef stew.  It only took a few minutes to assemble the stew and then the crock pot did the rest of the work!

The stew cooked on low for 8 hours and the flavor was really amazing!  If you are in a hurry, you can cook it on high for only 4 hours. 

In addition to beef stew, this seasoning packet can be used to make several other recipes in the crock pot.  The Crock Pot Seasoning Mix  website has several delicious recipes I want to try.  I want to make the Beef Burgundy next — it looks so easy and good!

    I also want to try the Slow Cooked Pepper Steak recipe.    

I love the versatility of the Crock Pot Seasoning Mixes.  The Hearty Beef Stew Seasoning Mix can be used to make beef stew or a variety of other great dishes such as the two I’ve shown above. 

My next review will be on the Savory Pot Roast Seasoning Mix.  I have decided to make Red Wine Braised Short Ribs with Smashed Potatoes with the Savory Pot Roast Seasoning Mix.  This recipe is on the Crock Pot Seasoning Mix website. 

I received a packet of the Crock Pot Hearty Beef Stew Seasoning Mix for this review.  No compensation was received.  These are my honest and true opinions.
