Wallers’ Prime Diced Stewing Beef
Transform your slow cooker or Dutch oven into pure comfort. Hand-trimmed and expertly diced by our master butchers, Wallers’ lean beef is packed with deep, rich flavor meant for the low-and-slow treatment.
As it gently simmers, the tender meat absorbs every drop of seasoned broth, red wine, or fragrant spice—yielding spoon-tender, melt-in-your-mouth bites and a velvety, full-bodied gravy.
-
Best Suited For: Rich autumn casseroles, rustic root-vegetable stews, slow-cooked beef bourguignon, or fragrant, spiced curries.
-
The Cut: Exceptionally lean, hand-selected beef that stays succulent and juicy without turning stringy.
-
The Wallers Promise: Consistently melt-in-the-mouth tenderness in every slow-braised spoonful.
-
Butcher’s Kitchen Tip: Don’t Skip the Hard Sear
-
Dry & Dust: Pat the beef thoroughly dry with kitchen paper before cooking—moisture prevents browning. Toss lightly in seasoned plain flour for an extra-rich, thickened sauce later.
-
Sizzle in Batches: Brown the meat in small batches in a smoking-hot pan with a splash of oil or dripping. Crowding the pan drops the temperature and steams the meat; you want a deep, caramelized crust on all sides to lock in savory flavor.
-
Deglaze the Gold: Pour a splash of stout, red wine, or stock into the hot pan to lift those sticky browned bits (the fond) from the bottom before transferring everything to your pot.
-
Low & Slow: Cover tightly and braise at 140°C–150°C (gas mark 1–2) or on your slow cooker's "Low" setting for 3 to 4 hours until it falls apart effortlessly at the touch of a fork.
