My Grandma’s Irish Stew

Actually this recipe comes from my great grandmother, Mary O’Brien,
who moved to New York from County Tipperary in 1858.
*Fry equal portions of lamb and beef in flour and oil (About one pound of each)
*Add eight medium size potatoes and a dozen carrots.
*Add three stalks of celery, 1/2 an onion and two small cloves of garlic.
*Put ingredients in caste iron cook pot, cover and simmer for twenty minutes.
*Salt and pepper to taste
*Add two fifths of John Powers Irish whiskey
*Simmer for 45 minutes. Serve with soda bread and a keg of Guinness.
If any portion of the above ingredients seems too extreme feel free to cut back on the suggested amounts. For instance: Maybe there are too many carrots for some tastes.
