      I made this yesterday but used sirloin steak because I needed to get it cooked quicker. I also added 2 packages of baby bella mushrooms, cut in half. Really happy with the outcome. TY (I did add some corn starch slurry with a shot of roasted garlic "better than bouillon" sauce in the slurry.)

    Definitely polenta takes a long time, my mum always complained of the time it took to make.
    Pro tip from Italy: if you have extra (or make extra!) Put it in a rectangular container and let it go hard in the fridge. Then you can slice it like 1-2cm thick and grill it in a grill pan or ideally on the bbq. Then top it with sauces or stuff. It’s traditional here to serve your bbq with grilled polenta, or my mum would make it “fake pizza” and put a bit of sauce and mozzarella on top as a starter/side in the days following the Sunday polenta+stew

    This looks amazing. When I was in Florence in May, I had Peposo in the Mercato Centrale and it was unbelievable. I asked the kind gentlemen how they prepared it and they marinate an entire beef shank overnight in chianti, black peppercorns, juniper berries, and fresh bay leaves. Then they braised in that same mixture. I had it shredded on a sandwich and it was offered with a sauce that was like a thin, spicy salsa verde. One of my favorite things I had on the trip.

    • @SipandFeast

I wish I had known about the juniper berries, because, since he mentioned it, they sound kind of perfect to go in this. I've also been thinking of this in a sandwich, like a Tuscan beef dip, if I can find the right crusty rolls in my small town. I made mine in a ceramic coated dutch oven in the oven, 2.5 hours at 325 covered, 1 hour at 325 uncovered. Came out perfect and no fussing with it on the stove top waiting for it to burn.

    A Finnish guy living in Spain says hello! This is a good basic recipe for any Mediterranean stews regardless of the meat. In this area (incl. Spain, Italy, Greece, etc) all stews are based on the same principle recipe and only meat and vegetables vary. For example we make a red wine based stew with peppers (similar to yours) every winter, but we use pork cheeks and ox tail, since they are very affordable meats around here. Also pork ribs can be used. The end result is a ragú, which you can stored in the freezer and served with pasta or fresh baked bread.

    One of the techniques I've seen used is to take the 'cooked' garlic you had in the pot and mash it up with two tablespoons of tomato paste to form a smooth 'butter' to apply to the beef. Once applied, you have a 'binder' for the freshly-cracked peppercorns. The pepper is a 'dry-rub' for the beef - it isn't dumped into the wine. The peppered beef cubes are then placed into the wine to steep and cook - you don't have to brown the beef if you don't want-to.

    As a chef, cook polenta with a lid.
    5 cups water, 1cup polenta. Boil water stir polenta. Lid on turn down low as possible. Stir in the butter and or cheese after 10mins.
    Its crazy to stir that vocano constantly!

    Polenta is basically the same thing as American hominy grits. As such, it does need a lot of salt. Also, it needs a lot of stirring to prevent clumping and needs to be eaten quickly after preparation before it has a chance to cool.

    Someone in my family has a corn allergy so no polenta, but we threw these ingredients in a crock pot and it was AMAZING. It was so good. We had to use mostly beef broth and some red wine because I didn't have very much red wine on hand, but with the whole amount of red wine I think it would have been among the top 5 dishes ever. Thanks for this wonderful recipe.

    This was delicious. I didn't know what to expect at first never having it before, but the strong pepper taste grew on me quickly. The only thing I did differently from the video was I salted the chuck roast with kosher salt on both sides and set it on a rack in the fridge for about 7 hours, treating it like a steak. Turned out great!

      yep,the kid is right. it’s perfect but needs a bit more salt, right? i’d have used more salt on the chuck before the sear and likely adjusted the seasoning of the sauce at the end as well. serving this with a starch like polenta or mash potato requires more salt than you think. the dish as a whole will be flat without it… be nice with fresh chopped flat parsley tossed just before serving

      @@robertTUBEbrazeau I bet it was plenty salty on the outside and with the sauce, but once you got into the middle of the pieces it weakened in flavor. The dry brining really does get that salt into that meat deep. Even just a few hours is good, doesn't have to be 7.

      @@JoshDragRace0688 I have started pre-salting all of my meat w/ Kosher salt up to a day in advance and it certainly boosts the flavor. The salt initially draws moisture OUT of the meat and then by osmosis it drags that moisture - and salt with it - back inside.

    Our household help back in the '70's made a beef stew that was legend among several of the neighborhood families who employed her. She used pre-ground pepper but she used probably a good 1/3 cup. And her cooking method so intensified that pepper. My family and friends still sing her praises nearly 50 years later. Going to try this dish in her honor.

    Love the recipe. Will try it. Hint: Regarding the use of salt, if a person has to cut down on their salt intake due to high blood pressure or kidney problems, MSG provides the same saltiness and flavor enhancement that salt gives to a recipe, but without the problems salt gives. I know MSG has a bad rap with many people, but I think many who say to stay clear of MSG are ignorant of the facts. They just are unreasonably influenced by popular belief. They should do their own research. MSG shouldn't be maligned as it has been.
