Yum Yum Beef Stew-Crockpot

I have made my first crock pot meal and it was a hit! We had a few friends over and I was nervous but everyone loved it! Very easy!

2 tablespoons oil
1/3 cup flour
2 1/2 pounds beef stew meat
head of garlic (we really like garlic but you can use less) minced
4 potatoes cut into bite size pieces
1 pound (small bag) baby carrots sliced in half
1 16 ounce can beef broth
1 can condensed French onion soup plus one can water
1 12 ounce bottle Amber Bock beer

Place flour in ziplock bag with beef stew meat. Coat the beef stew meat with the flour. Heat the oil in a skillet. Add beef stew meat to skillet and brown for 3 to 5 mins. Place beef stew meat in crock pot. Add garlic, potatoes, carrots, beef broth, french onion soup plus one can water and beer to crock pot. Cook on high for 4 to 5 hours or until vegetables are tender.
