Do you love the taste of bacon and beef together? Do you want to make a hearty, satisfying casserole in your slow cooker? Then you will adore this Crock Pot Burgundy Beef Casserole recipe!
This recipe is a variation of the traditional beef Bourguignon (in French) but without the mushrooms. Instead, it uses bacon, tomato paste, carrots, garlic, and beef bouillon to add depth and flavor to the beef cubes. The burgundy wine and cornstarch create a thick, rich sauce that coats the meat and vegetables. You can serve this dish with noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
