Ingredients
Scale
- 3 pounds boneless chuck roast (cut into 1-inch pieces)
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 4 slices turkey bacon (diced)
- 2 large onions (sliced)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 ½ cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 pound carrots (peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks)
- 1 ½ pounds Yukon Gold potatoes (peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces)

Instructions
- Heat vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add diced turkey bacon and cook until crispy, about 4–5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.
- Season the beef with salt and pepper, then brown in batches on all sides, about 1–2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- Lower the heat to medium, add more oil if needed, and sauté onions until browned, around 5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic.
- Mix in flour and tomato paste; cook for another minute until darkened.
- Pour in beef broth while scraping up browned bits from the pot. Return reserved beef and turkey bacon to the pot along with brown sugar, seasoning, and thyme.
- Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a simmer for one hour.
- Add carrots and potatoes; cover again and simmer until tender, about another hour.
- If needed, increase heat to thicken the stew before serving. Adjust seasoning as necessary.
