The slow cooker is a wonderful invention that makes it easy to cook delicious dishes for dinner.

It’s perfect for cold winter days and nights.
Low carb Crockpot Beef Bourguignon Ingredients
– Beef: I like to use chuck roast but any cut that has some fat and connective tissue will do.
– Bacon: I use half a pound for this recipe.
– Onion: I like to use a sweet onion, but any type of onion will do. Just keep in mind that the higher the level of sugar, the sweeter it will be.
– Garlic: Fresh garlic tastes best so if you have some at home you should use it. But if not, garlic powder is fine.
– Beef broth: Any brand of beef bone broth will do.
– Tomato paste: Tomato paste give it a deeper flavor. But if you are out of tomato paste you can substitute it with a can of chopped tomatoes.
– Wine: You can use a dry red wine to reduce the number of carbs.
– Carrot: Carrot is one of my favorite vegetables so I use a lot of it. You can skip it if you don’t like it.
– Mushroom: I like to use baby portobello mushrooms because they have a meatier texture than regular button mushrooms. But if you don’t have them just use white button mushrooms.
– Bay leaf: Bay leaf gives it a great aroma. Make sure to remove it before serving.
– Thyme: Dry or fresh thyme is fine.
– Xanthan gum: Xanthan gum helps to thicken the sauce. If you don’t have it you can use a tablespoon of almond flour or arrowroot powder.
– Salt and pepper: Fresh sea salt and freshly ground pepper are my favorite.
This keto beef Bourguignon can be made in an Instant Pot or slow cooker.
It is the perfect low-carb dish to make ahead of time for the whole week.
I find that cooking this beef stew recipe in the crockpot gives it lots of flavor and the meat is super tender.
The slow cooker is one of my favorite kitchen appliances.
I love that you can just set it up in the morning and when you get home at night, dinner is ready.
