A very flavorful recipe. Everyone could not get enough!

We have been eating this Wonderful Irish Lamb Stew for a week and haven't grown tired of it. It is a great stew, full of flavor. A keeper for me.

lamb came out very tender - delicious.

My husband made this for me and it was fabulous! I wouldn't change a thing about it.

we used 1 bottle of beer in replace of the water and wine. Oh so yummy and got better as the days went by!

My family did not like this at all. It was completely flavorless. I spent about 2 hours prepping for this recipe and followed it to the letter, but it was so bland that we just threw the leftovers away.

Made this for St. Pat's day, not a morsel left. I also cooked lamb evening before in crock pot( 7 hours) with onions,garlic, a bottle of beer and beef broth. The next day added all else. A dollop of sour cream and chopped mint is good to serve it with. Yummy

Yummo-Easy, quick. Iwill make this AGAIN

I didn't get to try this myself, because I don't eat meat, but I made it for my husband, and a couple of friends and they all loved it. So, 4 stars for helping me make people happily full! Thanks!

Great stew. I double recipe & had enough for 30+. Used Wolfgang Puck beef stock (only stock store had). I never flour meat & brown for stew, did this time thinking it would help thicken. It didn't. All did was stick to browning pan. Don't concern yourself with the thickening part. This is so good you won't care if it isn't real thick. Forget trying to find boneless shoulder meat. Grocery store butcher boned, cut off extra fat and cut into stew size portions lamb leg. Meat is very expensive, $4.49 a lb. You can't do it everyday but once or twice a year splurge a little. I put 1 1/2 times potatoes, garlic & onion. Cut back bacon to 2/3's recipe amount. Did not put in stout as others had but did de-glaze pan with American burgandy and you have to add the white wine.

Very good! I used beef, not lamb and some Guinness and cooked it in the crock pot all day.

This stew was outstanding! The only things I changed were the amount of lamb, 3.5 lbs., the amount of bacon, 3/4 lb., and I used Guinness in place of the water and wine. Everything else was the same and it was to die for! Everyone raved about it, even our best friend who's been to Ireland and is a cook himself said that it was superb and had seconds, and made me pack some up for him to take home! The only thing it needed at the end was some freshly craked pepper. YUMMY!

Very good. I cut back on the bacon, as I didn't want it to over power the lamb. I'm glad I did. I used lamb shoulder with the bone in (all I could find), and only used about 3# of it. That was plenty for us. I browned the meat and then threw it in with the bone into the crock pot. When the stew was about done, I removed the meat and pulled it off the bone. it fell apart into pieces as I did so. I also added some beer to the crock pot, as suggested. A good, hearty stew with a subtle, tasty lamb flavor. Not something I'd make a lot, but when you want this taste, it's a great recipe.

This was delicious! I tossed the lamb in flour before searing it in the pan first. Then in lieu of water I added 2 cups of vegetable broth and 2 cups of stout. This was the best stew I ever made! And I only used one pot!!

Turned out well. I substituted beef cube steak instead of lamb because I had it in my freezer. I also added a can of crushed tomatoes just to get a few more veggies in there. I put everything in the crock pot and cooked on low for about 9 hours. It was tender and yummy!

Fool Proof!! I made this for St Patrick's day. I screwed it up.. i halved the recipe but instead of putting in a 1/2 cup of Guinness (in place of the wine) i put in the WHOLE bottle. I cooked it a bit longer with the top off and it boiled down. OMG does this taste fantastic. My 5 year old LOVES this.

This is an excellent recipe. I used 2 lbs. each of beef and lamb stew meat. I also added a bottle of Guinness and doubled the amount of potatoes. I let the stew sit in the refrigerator over-night and added another cup of beef broth when re-heating. It was a big hit!
