Crock Pot Carbonnade
By: Marcy Thompson
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 1994

Saute 2 large sliced onions (1/8" slices) in 4 Tbsp butter until they are totally soft. Add 1 tsp brown sugar and stir them around until they get brown and carmelized. Mix in lots of freshly ground black pepper and about 2 tsp of fresh thyme. Put these in the bottom of the crockpot. Add 1 lb stewing beef in 1" chunks. Pour over 1 bottle dark beer. Crock for about 4 hours on high. Then remove 1/2 c of the sauce. Stir in 1 Tbsp flour. Mix this back into the sauce. Crock on high for another 2 hours.
