Place over med. heat, cook until crisp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remove bacon to paper towels to dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the bacon cooks, cut the beef roast into 2″ pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cut off any large pieces of fat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turn heat under casserole to med-high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add several pieces of meat. Do not crowd the pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There should be plenty of space around each piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brown the meat well all over & remove to a bowl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Repeat with all pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heat oven to 325.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When all the meat has been cooked, set aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use a slotted spoon to remove the vegetables to the bowl with the beef.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pour all excess fat out of the pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Replace meat & veggies in pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sprinkle with flour, salt & pepper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toss to distribute evenly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stir the beef over med-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes, until it is well coated with flour & the flour is browning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add the thyme, bay leaf & wine to the meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add a little beef stock if the meat isn’t entirely covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crumble the bacon into the pot, stir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cover pan & bake 3 hours or until meat is tender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

30 minutes before the beef is done, wash & cut mushrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heat butter & oil together in a wide skillet over high heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add mushrooms & cook, stirring constantly, until they begin to brown, about 5 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
