Irish Stew in the Slow Cooker

Home » COOK » Recipes » Slow Cooker Recipes » Irish Stew in the Slow Cooker

Didn’t do much for St. Patrick’s Day this year (last year I held a dinner party) but I did make an Irish Stew in the slow cooker…here’s the recipe!

I made this in the slow cooker, but you could just as easily make it in a regular casserole dish in the oven. Ideally I would have cooked this overnight on low, but instead, I cooked it on high for 6 hours.
