Beef Stew

2 lbs beef stew meat
2 onions, chopped
2 large carrots
4 stalks of celery
1/2 chopped cabbage
1/2 to 1 cup of wine
1/4 cup wine vinegar
1 can of tomato paste
parika
garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp pepper
1 tbsp brown sugar

We tossed the meat in flour and garlic powder and sauteed it til brown on the outside. Added everything to the crockpot and set on high. Added 2 cups of beef broth after it had been simmering for about 2 hours and let simmer for about 20 more minutes.

If I had it to do again, we wouldn't have tossed meat in flour without first cutting it into smaller pieces. Crocking it over night would've likely yielded a better result.
