Beef Bourguignon
Classic beef bourguignon recipe with a bacon-infused red wine sauce. You sear the meat first to create a flavorful surface crust then it cooks in the oven with root vegetables and herbs until fork tender. It’s amazing!
Beef bourguignon is a French stew made famous by Julia Child. Her love for classic techniques and wine is exquisitely on display in this recipe. However, I just made a few simple substitutions to modernize the ingredients and methods, but don’t worry, the rich flavors are not lost.
The beef and bacon first cook on the stovetop to develop gorgeous colors and textures. The cooking is completed at a consistent temperature in the oven allowing the stew to braise for over an hour. This process completely changes the taste of the meat while developing a savory red wine sauce to pour generously on top.
