  For those with concerns about cooking with wine due to alcoholism or just general alcohol aversion, please be aware that cooking with alcohol does NOT make the dish alcoholic - heat kills the alcohol, leaving only the FLAVOR. My mom's beef burgundy or coq au vin certainly never got me drunk! LOL - 9/25/08

  Balsamic Vinegar would be a good replacment for the wine...use about 1/2 cup......flavor and acid for tenderizing the meat intact!!! This is also a good recipe to make vegetaarian byt substituting vegetable broth and Garbanzo, black and pinto beans!!! - 8/30/08

  This was good, I used less meat. No wine. I added V8 juice, ( well a low sodium version) I used low sodium Rachel Ray broth. - 8/29/08

  Very good and easy to make. I wasn't sure if I should use canned or dried beans. I used canned and ended up with about a cup more than what the recipe called for so I ended up increasing the fiber a bit. - 11/6/07

  Love a hearty beef and vegetable soup. This sounds like one to try. I have a couple of pounds of grass fed stew meat in the freezer that I think I'll use instead of the roast. Would be good cooked all day in the crock pot. Onions are a definite must to add!! Fresh garlic, too. - 2/8/10

  I make a soup very similar to this one. Change the vegetables to what ever I have on hand at the time. Use chicken sometimes, too. Cabbage with beef, spinach with chicken - 3/19/10

  Really liked this did a little differently cooking wise I browned the meat cooked it in the pressure cooker before I put it in the crockpot. Took it to work and the crew loved it. I think next time I will leave out the cabbage maybe add spinach instead. Thanks for the great recipe. - 2/20/10

  Inglenook is a nice dry wht cooking wine I use to saute yellow squash, mushrooms w/green onions, I think I w/use for this. However, it is bitter to drink. Will be making this dish thicker like a stew and serve with corn tortillas this wknd... Thanks - 3/23/10

  Haven't made yet, sounds great! White grape juice is a great substitute for white wine in cooking, so I am thinking that regular grape juice will work for red wine. - 3/19/10

  How can half cup of vinegar replace 4 cups of wine? The soup would turn into stew! - 2/8/10

  I substituted venison roast in place of the beef roast and used about 1/2 the amount of wine. Very delish! - 9/8/08

  Could you please estimate a serving size? thanks.
  Oh yeah and I'm gonna have to buy a stock pot if I make this, it sounds HUGE! I don't have anything big enough to fit it in. I guess I could half the recipe, but what's the fun in that? Although, is this freezable? - 8/29/08

  Skipper - don't buy a cooking wine, you should only cook with a wine you would be willing to drink.
  
  For those that dont want to use wine, as others have said you can substitute any kind of broth you like. - 8/29/08
  
  
• CYNTHIAS50
  
  
  
  
  I have always substituted broth or water for wine in other recipes, I'm sure you could do the same with this one :) Sounds good, I think it'll be on the menu next week! - 8/29/08

  I would use more beef broth in place of the wine. Apple juice and beef don't really go together, IMO. Also agree with using low sodium broth. - 11/8/07
  
  
• OUTOFIDEAS
  
  
  Good
  
  This is pretty good as is, but I added a can of diced tomatoes, 1 Tbsp. minced garlic, a chopped yellow onion, and cracked black pepper. - 11/2/07

  As DH is a new member of AA what could I use in place of the wine?? I'm not use to using recipes for cooking but we are willing to try new things now-just don't want to " upset the apple cart" if you know what I mean. Thanks!! - 11/2/07
  
  
• GSPEIRS
  
  
  
  
  Do you have any suggestions on what could be used in place of the red wine besides more water to help with the flavor? Apple Juice?
  
  It looks like a great recipe, I'd like to try it! - 11/2/07

  I have never cooked a recipe with any wine & would not want to ruin a good soup recipe by selecting a poor brand. There seems to be so many to choose from...how do I select a good cooking wine? - 11/2/07

  You could always replace the beef broth with a low-sodium beef broth and reduce the sodium considerably. (Swanson beef broth has 890 mg sodium per serving - the lower sodium has 440mg sodium per serving). - 11/2/07
  
  
• DAISYLADY
  
  
  Very Good
  
  Very high in sodium and the red wine is a bit much but other than that this is pretty good. - 3/25/07
