Calls For Burgundy Wine
“Beef Bourguignon”
A Beef Stew Restaurant Recipe

Beef Stew Recipe or ...Beef Bourguignon. A fun way of saying French Stew or ...Burgundy Stew.

Actually, I believe the French word means “of Burgundy” which is appropriate since this my beef stew restaurant recipe calls for Burgundy wine. It is a secret ingredient ...secret no more.

At the restaurant this recipe is served with lots of crusty bread. Customers who order this for dinner also enjoy a glass of good burgundy wine with it.
