Ingredient Checklist

Directions

  • Combine salt, cinnamon, allspice, pepper and cloves in a small bowl. Rub the mixture all over beef.

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the beef and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker.

  • Add onion and garlic to the pan. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add wine and tomatoes (with their juice); bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits and breaking up the tomatoes. Add the mixture to the slow cooker along with carrots and turnips.

  • Cover and cook on High for 4 hours or Low for 8 hours.

  • Remove the beef from the slow cooker and slice. Serve the beef with the sauce and vegetables, garnished with basil, if desired.
