Ive made stew chicken and stew beef before, but decided to see other trini recipes out there. So I'm trying this one tonight, I already have my meat marinating!

I buy meat from Costco's also. Although I'm not from the Carribean, I make beef stews, and always use chuck beef or a thick chuck steak and cut it up myself. It's cheaper, and much tastier than "stew beef", which is usually sirloin, and tends to dry out.

Chris, I like your posts, food and videos. I tried several recipes, and tasted like just like I remember from Trinidad.

Hi Chris–
I have been following your recipes for several months now and have prepard many of your featured recipes. They have all been exellent! The Stewed beef was wonderful (I added the mushrooms-Yum). I have noticed several of the beef recipes suggest that the meat be rinsed in a lemon/lime/vinegar solution, and then drained. You have probably posted this before, but what does the acid of the juice/vinegar do to the beef?

This is my fav beef dish to cook now! I don't eat much red meat but I love this recipe…I was actually going to make it today when I got this email. I was thinking about throwing a can of pigeon peas in there…is that a faux pas? As always thanks for posting great recipes!

Having been reading a lot of your recipes for a while – I finally got around to cooking this dish! It is now on the stove in a dutch pot given to me by a good friend. The smells are incredible, just have to wait an hour for it to stew. Thanks for the site and I cannot wait to cook lots, lots more of your recipes.

Chris… This was my first time trying a recipe from the site, and I followed it word for word. OMG!!! YUM YUM YUM!!! I Amost licked the plate clean, and I invited a friend over to try it. I think she DID lick hers clean! Served it over rice, w/mofongo, salad, and sweet plantains. Beef was like butter! And I'm not even from the islands. Sure tasted like it though! Thanks much : -)

Chris, this recipe was awesome…I have had a few versions of Stewed Beef and his was one of the best!…my in-laws are from USVI so their spin is a little different…the only thing I did different was add carrots…excellent recipe!

Hi Chris

I came across this when Googling for something different to do with some frozen stewing beef – thanks so much, it was really awesome! I left the lime juice in the marinade as I really love the whole citrus-y taste, and I used palm sugar (mainly as it was what I have, but I adore the fudgy flavour) and we LOVED it!

So thanks again

Hi Chris! The result was absolutly delicious! For the meat, I used the brisket tip as it was on sale and had marvelous marbling in it! My hubby was impressed For the pot, i manage to snatch one at Canadian Tire as they were on sale 60% off, originaly 150$!!! They are not cheap, as you mentionned It’s the kitchenaid brand. I believe it’s cast iron and enamel covered. Looks pretty much like the one in your “rice and peas without peas?” recipe. If anyone else is searching, i also found at Homesense (afiliated with winners) a variaty of them in green and orange, for only 40$ Not bad considering what they usually ask for them.
Anyhow, once more, thanks so much for all your help! I will be looking forward for the stew chicken recipe!
Have a great week Chris and keep up the good work, i know my family is enjoying it!!!!!

Thank you, please do post the chicken one Chris! My family loves stew chicken and we usually order out once a week for it! I’d love to be able to cook a nice authentic dish they can enjoy! My canadian recipe is ok but they really like caribbean stew chicken and i must say, it does taste much better!

Claudine, I’ve had great success with the stewing beef from Costco. But there are the occasions when it does turn out dry as we discussed earlier as well. BTW, if you ever cross the border into the US, try target or Marshalls for the dutch ovens as well.

If you find that the beef is not working out for you, you can always use pork or chicken. I’ve posted the pork recipe already and can certainly post the chicken one if you’re interested.

happy cooking
