This recipe originally aired over at Yummly but for Mouth Watering Mondays – Steak and Stout with Potatoes is shared here today!! Perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. A big, hearty, and delicious bowl that is thicker than a stew. It can be served on its own with a crusty bun or with a large salad and is scrumptious for a wintery day like we are having today.
Rich, hearty and goes perfectly with another cold stout to wash it all down. You will be loving St. Patrick’s Day even more with this amazing meal!!
