The potatoes and brown rice break down a bit, adding a silkiness that turns the broth into gravy. Loved the seasoning. I used bison instead of beef, picked out the dried peas (thats just me being silly; I don't like peas), and omitted the parsnip (personal preference). Diced turnip or swede would work well instead of parsnip. So would diced red and green pepper. A few mushrooms, a little extra black pepper and chili flakes in my bowl, and it was nigh-on perfect. Very soothing, as stew should be. Very easy to prepare. If chopping veg is an issue (it can be with me), then diced frozen veg would work just fine.

Great stew - so easy to prepare. The recipe calls for parsnips, which I had to cook separately because not everyone in our family likes them. I would add a cup of diced turnips along with the carrots and potatoes the next time I make this.

Made the old fashioned beef barley soup. Used bone broth instead of water and added one additional cup liquid. Delicious.

I picked up this stew mix on a whim not expecting too much, but I am really impressed! The instructions were easy and clear and the stew came out absolutely delicious. I'm now here on your website to buy some more.

Have bought at least 6 of these soups and really impressed, great taste.

Amazing flavor just like being back home, I pair it with homemade soda bread and my husband loves it.

I work shift work and the Mitchell's products are a lifesaver! I can make a batch and freeze in portions so I can pull one out and go. Love them!

The Irish beef stew is my husband favourite. It is warm, hearty and SO good. Paired with fresh bread it is the perfect warmup for fall or winter.

The best soup I have had in a long time, perfect for those rainy days!!
