"Beef chuck stewed with potatoes, carrots, celery, onions and beef broth for a homey favorite. The aroma that permeates throughout the house while the stew is simmering doesn't do it justice..delicious."

INGREDIENTS:

4 tablespoons vegetable oil 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon black pepper 2 pounds beef chuck, cubed 12 small boiling onions

6 large potatoes, peeled and diced 6 carrots, sliced 3 stalks celery, sliced 3 (10.5 ounce) cans beef broth 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon cold water

DIRECTIONS:

1.	In a large pot heat oil over medium high heat. In a resealable plastic bag mix together the flour, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Add a small handful of meat at a time and shake until well coated; brown in hot oil, about 1 minute per side. Remove the browned meat and continue until all the meat is browned.
2.	Lower heat to medium and add onions. Brown onions on both sides, about 3 minutes per side, then remove from pot and set aside. Drain excess fat from pot.
3.	To pot add potatoes, carrots, celery, reserved onions, browned meat and broth. Stir all together and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
4.	For a thicker broth: 1/2 hour before stew is done, combine 3 tablespoons flour and water in a small bowl and mix well, then slowly stir mixture into stew

"Sugar and dark corn syrup are cooked with vinegar and tempered with baking soda to make a crunchy candy that gets covered in a chocolate coating."

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup white sugar 1 cup dark corn syrup 1 tablespoon vinegar

1 tablespoon baking soda 1 pound chocolate confectioners' coating

DIRECTIONS:

1.	Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2.	In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, corn syrup and vinegar. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Heat, without stirring, to 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads. Remove from heat and stir in baking soda. Pour into prepared pan; do not spread. Mixture will not fill pan. Allow to cool completely.
3.	In the microwave or over a double boiler, melt coating chocolate, stirring frequently until smooth. Break cooled candy into bite sized pieces and dip into melted candy coating. Let set on waxed paper. Store tightly covered.
