Need help with Beef Stew slow cooker recipe?

Ok stop stressing...a crock pot is made to make our lives easy....just throw everything in it and go....browning meat isn't always necessary. for beef stew i wouldn't brown it....near the gravy mixes in the grocery store there are about 4 packets for slow cookers and one is for stew...it's really good....I put turkey in mine the other day and just added a package of turkey gravy mix and a cup of water and it was so good....the water does not cook out so the amount you add is the amount your gonna get so don't over due it. another thing you can do is put a hole chicken (cut) and a bottle of bbq sauce and two table spoons of er cook on low all day...taste just like bbq.....
