8. Add 3 Tbsp. butter to your stew and mix together. I added 1/2 tsp. xanthan gum to slightly thicken – but it should have reduced some.
Add the butter to your crock pot
9. Let cook for 1 more hour without the top, so that the sauce can reduce.
10. Serve hot, or save it in the fridge – it saves well and can be reheated in the microwave!
