Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine beef, beef stock, and porcini mushrooms into a large saucepan and bring to a simmering boil. Leave on a low simmer until meat is tender, about 1 hour.

Step 2

Heat butter in a large stockpot over medium-high heat and add white, bella, porcini, and canned mushrooms, onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Saute until mushrooms shrink and onions are translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 3

Transfer beef mixture to the stockpot. Continue to simmer for 1 hour more. Remove pieces of beef and shred with 2 forks. Return shredded beef to the stew and serve immediately.
