While I’ve never been a huge fan of drinking Guinness, I’ve
always been a great admirer of how wonderfully it can elevate a simple beef stew. The subtle
bitterness from the hops, and toastiness from the malt, gives the gravy a depth
of flavor that I really love.
Besides, you only need one can for this St. Patrick’s Day-inspired stew, and since they’re sold in 4-can packs…well, you can do the math.
This would normally be the point in post where I’d make my annual Irish
drinking joke, but I’m not doing one this year.

Not only is it inappropriate, but it’s culturally
insensitive, and I’d like to think I’ve matured past the point of going for
such cheap laughs. Besides, my Irish joke writer, Paddy O’Sullivan, was on a
binge this week, so I never got one from him anyway. Oh well, like I said,
probably for the best.

Anyway, if you’re looking for a gorgeous and incredibly
delicious Irish stew recipe for your St. Patrick’s Day menu, this one comes
highly recommended. I served mine with some green onion mashed potatoes, and
while I usually encourage you to serve things like this on whatever you want,
not this time. You must serve this with some form of potato. And that is no
joke. I hope you give this a try soon. Enjoy!
