Method

8 steps · 45 min

01
Prep the vegetables
Dice the carrots and onion, keeping the mushrooms separate for now.
02
Cut the beef
Cut the beef chuck into bite-sized pieces and transfer to a bowl.
03
Sear the beef
Sprinkle the 1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour over the beef pieces and toss to coat them lightly. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil over high heat until it's shimmering and almost smoking, about 1 minute. Add the floured beef, being careful not to crowd the pot; work in batches if necessary to ensure a good sear.
Cook the beef for about 5 minutes without disturbing, letting a rich brown crust form. Flip the pieces and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until they're deeply browned all over. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside in a bowl, leaving the heat on.
04
Sauté aromatics
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil to the hot pot, then stir in the diced onions, carrots, thyme, and rosemary. Cook for about 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables begin to soften and the bottom of the pot starts to release any browned bits from the beef.
05
Deglaze with wine
Return the seared beef to the pot. Pour in the 1 cup red wine and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the wine to reduce slightly and its aroma to fill the kitchen.
06
Simmer the stew
Add the bay leaf, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 2 cups beef broth to the pot. Bring it back to a boil, then lower the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer gently for 20 minutes.
07
Add mushrooms
Stir in the 2 pints button mushrooms. Continue to simmer, covered, for another 30 minutes, until the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.
08
Finish and serve
Carefully remove and discard the bay leaf. Season the bourguignon with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, then serve warm.
