Stove top Lamb Stew

Lamb stew is an easy family favorite that Mom made often during the winter months.

This is a perfect comfort food filled with vegetables in a delicious sauce that was so good served with hard-crusted Italian bread to sop up the juices.

Although not everyone's a lamb fan, you can certainly substitute another meat you prefer, the sauce is delectable and will still make a great stovetop stew.

Lamb Makes A Great Stew



I love lamb pretty much any way it's cooked, as long as it's tender.

This stew is fork-tender and perfect every time.

We use either Guinness Beer or red wine to cook it in which makes it tender and juicy with so much extra flavor!

Growing up my mom added any kind of vegetables she had in the pantry, you can adapt this recipe to the kinds your family prefers.

Now I make it often, especially on cooler nights and in winter.

If you love Lamb!


We love all kinds of lamb prepared in different ways.


This lamb stew is a hearty bowl of delicious old-fashioned flavors.

Lamb shoulder makes a great stew but you will have to sear the shoulder in oil and garlic then cool cut it up and place the boneless meat into a cast iron skillet.

It's economical, a tasty part of the lamb for stew, just a little more work if you aren't using the leftover leg of lamb or lamb stew meat already cut up.
