1. Put a dash of Oil in a pan (we use our Wok) and heat adding the garlic and onion. Sear the stewing beef in the pan adding the worcestershire sauce. Cook for 5 minutes or until the beef is browned. 2. In your crock pot or stock pot add 1 L of chicken stock. Prepare vegatables and add. 3. Slice Sausage (into bite sized slices), bacon and add to pot. 4. Add pearl barley, herbs and sugar and stir. 5. Add the Stew Beef and contents of the Wok to pot/crock pot. Add Salt and pepper to taste. 6. A quick check will tell you how much of the second litre of chicken stock to add (enough to cover the contents of the crock/stock pot is all you need.). 7. Close to serving time we like to check the consistency and using corn starch and a little water thicken up to the desired texture. 8. Working long days this dish works for us when popped in the crock pot for 5 to 7 hours. When we cook it on the stove it takes about 3 to 5 on a low simmer. 9. We enjoy our stew with dinner buns, but from experience Irish Soda bread works really well. I will put a recipe up for this soon also. Please enjoy and look forward to your comments.
