Hey everyone! I’ve got a super easy recipe for you today. In the Trumbo house, we would usually use venison, but we’re almost out for the year, so we used beef this time. This recipe feeds 6 with lots left over.
Ingredients:-
- 2 lbs beef or venison
- 1 lb crinkle sliced carrots
- 1 lb med potatoes cubed into 1″ pieces
- 1/2 a large onion, diced
- 1/2 C peas
- 3 C water
- 1 Tbsp celery seed
- 1 Tbsp Worcester sauce
- 1 Tbsp flour
- 2 Tbsp brown gravy mix
- 1 tsp turmeric
In a crock pot, dump 2 lbs cubed beef (or venison) and the flour, stir to coat. Turn on high for 5 hours of cook time or low for 8+ hours. Add carrots, potatoes, onion, water, celery seed, and Worcester sauce. Let that cook for 4 hours until the meat is cooked and the veggies are just tender.
When there’s one hour left of cook time, in a small sauce pot, put 2 C of cold water. Follow the directions on your brown gravy mix to get 2 cups. Add that to crock pot. Just before serving, add peas and turmeric, stir and serve!
My family loves this. I know it’s more than the usual 3-4 ingredient recipes, but this comes together mostly from ready-made ing. (I buy my beef cubed when I don’t have venison and I buy fresh, crinkle cut carrots) I also don’t bother to peel my potatoes, but you certainly could if the peels bother you. Enjoy

This sounds tasty and fool-proof. Thanks for sharing.
I think it is! I love that I can make this and have supper one night and lunch the next day.
Thank you for tge recipe; it sounds great.
Thank you!
Looks great!
Thank you!
I’m always interested in new recipes especially for the crockpot. Happy Monday!
I love my crockpot too, especially during busy seasons.
Yum! Sounds and looks delicious! Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Nice! This sounds like my beef stew recipe, except with gravy! I like mine with the potato skins on too! Thank you for sharing!
You’re welcome. I use the gravy because I’m not a chef and the gravy just works better for me that way than trying to add flour to thicken later. Kitchen chemistry is more like alchemy to me LOL
Yummy. Thanks for sharing.
You’re quite welcome. 🙂
Sounds good! I will have to try this recipe!!
Thank you 🙂
This sounds good!! Gotta love meals you can fix in the crockpot or slow cooker!
Honestly, they are perfect.
Thanks for the recipe. Instead of buying a gravy mix, I think I’m going to try making gravy from scratch.
That works too!
Good morning, thank you for sharing your recipe, it sounds and looks delicious. Have a great week.
Thank you, you too!
Thank you for sharing the recipe it sounds delicious!
Thank you!
Stew is one of my favorites. It is one of the best and easiest comfort foods. I rarely use my crock pot to do it, but might try it. I’ve not added peas before, but I add them to everything else, so why not.
This is a delicious sounding recipe, thank you!
