Method

1

Cut the beef chuck into 1-inch cubes.

2

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches, then remove from the pot and set aside.

3

Add the onion, carrots, and celery to the pot and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and tomato paste and cook for another minute.

4

Return the beef to the pot. Add the beef broth, barley, thyme, bay leaf, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 1 1/2 - 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the barley is cooked.

5

Remove the bay leaf before serving. Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve hot.
