 Looks great so far.  

 Thanks 😁

It looks about the same now that it's done, but the meat is super tender and there are carrots and potatoes now. 

 Excellent!  

 oh thats gonna slap. 
 

 It's pretty slappy 🔥

It'll get better the more I make it for sure. 

 Practice makes the slap happen. 

 you got this Jay!

wish I could taste it 

 Thanks! It turned out pretty good, probably due in no small part to the good wine 😊😁 

 Don’t fail us. This is for all the marbles. 

 Now that it's done, I can safely say, I have not failed you 🫡 

 Beef stew was a success, thank God 😁

The meat readily falls apart and the veggies are extremely soft, and it tastes pretty good too. Not bad for my first try. Quality meat goes a long way.

Though I'm wondering if I should thicken up the broth with some more flour or just keep it nice and soupy 🤔

 The stew looks absolutely amazing. Great job for the first try. This is a weekly staple at my house. 

 Thank you! I made so much, it'll last me a really long time 😅 

 Nice! That’s great though… Nice hearty meals. 🥘🍲💜
