Mom's Beef Burgundy

Mmm! I LOVE the taste of burgundy cooking wine!

Ingredients:
2 slices bacon
2 lbs. sirloin tip or round steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
¼ cup flour
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. seasoned salt
1 tbsp. cornstarch
¼ tsp. thyme
¼ tsp. pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
1 beef bouillon cube, crushed
1 cup burgundy cooking wine
¼ tsp. marjoram

In large skillet cook bacon several minutes. Remove bacon and set aside. Coat beef with flour and brown on all sides in bacon mixture. Combine steak, bacon drippings, cooked bacon, seasonings, bouillon and burgundy. Mix.

At this point, if you would like to freeze this recipe to make later, place combined mixture into a labeled freezer bag and freeze for up to 6 months. When ready to use, thaw and continue as follows:

Cover and cook in crock pot on low for 6 hours or until meat is tender. Dissolve cornstarch in 2 Tbsp. water. Add and cook on high for 15 minutes.

Additional note: The sauce on this meat is especially good. I often double the sauce ingredients for the same amount of steak in order to have a gravy for potatoes, noodles or rice.

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!
