Recipe FAQs
Yes, you can use stew meat in this recipe.
Cutting the meat into cubes helps it to cook faster and more evenly. The roast won't cook in the given time unless it is cut into cubes.

Can I make this in a slow cooker?

Hi! I haven't made this in a slow cooker, but I would guess so! When I make slow cooker dishes with vegetables and carrots, I add them in toward the end of the cooking time so that they don't get overcooked.
