Making a beef gravy is done preferably with a black cast iron frying pan. Sear your meat on med-high with olive oil or your other favorite. You want to almost blacken the meat on both sides. Add water and cook slowly one low heat. You can put in a crockpot or on low in the oven or keep it one low on the stove top. I never use small chunks of meat, they can often get tough. I use a good piece of beef and then cut in chunks when I serve it. This is just a general stew with thickened gravy with flour. Add your favorite spices and vegetables. Not Irish but, I bet they are the same.
