Why Beef Bourguignon? Well firstly, I really like Julia Childs and Beef Bourguignon was a signature dish of hers. While my Beef Bourguignon is definitely not going to be as good as hers or as traditional, it’s a dish that is quite high in fat even without much tweaking, as well as being pretty low carb friendly.
It’s a great dish for winter or a cold, rainy day because it’s such a savoury and hearty meal and I love to serve ours over Cauliflower Mash. You can even choose to make this Beef Bourguignon in a slow cooker, pressure cooker or Instant Pot if you prefer to use them!

Beef Bourguignon
Ingredients
- 1 kg chuck or gravy beef, diced
- 200 g mushrooms, quartered
- 5 shallots/scallions, chopped
- 6 slices streaky bacon, diced
- 2 cubes garlic paste or 2 tsp minced garlic
- 3 tsp fresh thyme, chopped
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
- 100 g butter
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup red wine
- 2 cups beef bone broth or can sub beef stock
- 1 quantity optional Cauliflower Mash, to serve
Instructions
- Coat diced beef with coconut flour, seasoned with salt and pepper. Heat half the butter and olive oil in a large pot and cook beef until sealed. Remove and set aside. Heat remaining butter and olive oil and add bacon, garlic and shallots. Sauté until shallots are soft then add back beef and mushrooms. Stir to combine.
- If using an Instant Pot you can do these first steps in there using the sauté function before adding your liquids. If you want to use a slow cooker or pressure cooker you’ll need to transfer your food from the pot over to the cooker at this point.
- Add your red wine, stir well then add beef bone broth. Bring to the boil, reduce heat and simmer for at least an hour until beef is tender and sauce is reduced and thickened. If using a pressure cooker do 1 hour, if using a slow cooker, cook on high for 4-6 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Eat as is or serve with cauliflower mash.
