You can cook beef bourguignon on the hob – it’s no doubt the original method – but it is much easier to keep the heat constant in a moderate oven. (Plus it’s easier to clean up after yourself with the pot safely bubbling away out of sight.) Try this amazing take on French cuisine this weekend for a heart-healthy dining experience.
Ingredients
- 3 to 4 pound beef chuck roast, cut into chunks
- 3 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 c. red wine
- 1 c. beef broth
- 2 c. sliced baby bella mushrooms
- 2 large carrots, sliced into rounds
- 1 large onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 3 springs fresh thyme
- 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and quartered
- Chopped fresh parsley, for serving
Instructions:
1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. While it heats, tosses beef with oil. Sear beef in batches, 3 minutes per side. Between each batch, deglaze the pan with some red wine, scraping up any bits with a wooden spoon. Pour mixture into slow-cooker along with seared beef as it’s done.
2. To slow-cooker add beef broth, mushrooms, carrots, onion, garlic, thyme, rosemary, and remaining red wine. Cook on high 6 to 7 hours until beef is easily shreddable. Thirty minutes before serving, remove herbs and add asparagus; cook until just tender.
3. Garnish with parsley and serve.

I’m contacting you is to ask if the hypertension and the 2breaths is bought separate. I am 74. have to take zolpidem every night to sleep. Also take metaprolol after heart sergery and levathoroxin for no theyroid function. I ‘m not sure about hypertention? Posible anziaty due to not sleeping. I’ve recently changed my diet to a ‘palio’ without any dairy or grains. And NO sugar.
Margaret thank you for your inquiry. RESPeRATE and 2breathe are sold separately. Yes lack of sleep is a cause for your blood pressure to go up. Depending what is your primary concern I would go with that device. If you have more questions call 1-800-220-1925
