ALL NATURAL Beef Stew Seasoning Mix. It tastes so much better than the packets and you get to control the flavors and the sodium. We bet you already have all the spices in your pantry! Mix up a jar and it will be ready to go anytime you want to make a big pot of stew!

We know we're sooooooorta pushing the limits of winter here with beef stew seasoning mix. We have a beef stew recipe coming too–oh well, we've never claimed to be a reliable blogger. We make what sounds good! Plus, one of our readers sent us an email requesting this recipe. Our taco seasoning recipe has been so popular and we don’t blame people for wanting to eat real food instead of some chemical mixture packed with sodium to make it taste semi-decent.

We gladly accepted the challenge of making an all-natural beef stew seasoning that would add great flavor to stew but still allow you to control the amount of sodium and spices. We absolutely love the way this turned out.

What is in Beef Stew Seasoning Mix?

Flour – it helps the stew thicken!
Oregano
Basil
Rosemary
Parsley
Paprika
Cayenne Pepper
Celery Seed
Onion Powder
Salt and Pepper

These spices and herbs together make the most flavorful beef stew – you’ll be ditching the packets in no time! It works on the stovetop or in a slow cooker recipe.

As a side note, if you’re not a huge fan of pepper, make sure to read the comments! Some people find this to be too peppery. You’re only using 2-3 tablespoons of the mixture per 1 pound of stew meat and you want it to be well seasoned, so we obviously think it’s great the way it’s written! But you can always add more pepper at the end, so if you’re unsure, start with a smaller amount.
