½ teaspoon black pepper

½ teaspoon garlic salt
-
3-6 tablespoons olive oil
-
3 Tablespoons cold butter, separated
-
2 cups yellow onion, diced

4 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 cup Cabernet Sauvignon

4 cups beef broth

Directions
Sprinkle beef with black pepper and garlic salt. Toss to coat. Sprinkle flour over the meat and toss again.
Heat olive oil in a pot over medium-high heat. Sear the meat in batches for 45 seconds per side and transfer to the Slow Cooker.
Add all remaining ingredients except for the peas, corn starch, and 2 Tablespoons of cold butter.
Heat on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours, until the vegetables are softened, and the potatoes are fork tender.
Add the peas during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
To thicken, combine 1/4 cup cold water + 3 tablespoons corn starch and slowly stir it into the broth. It will continue to thicken upon standing.
Turn off heat and remove the bay leaves and rosemary stem and then serve.
