On the Spot Beef Bourguignon

during the hurricane i decided to take action!  i have a recipe for beef bourguignon but i did not follow it.

my recipe:

2 - 3 lbs of chuck roast
bouquet garni
1/2 bottle of red wine
2 cups of veal stock
onions
carrots
flour
salt
pepper
mushrooms
bacon


1.  sear the beef in olive oil and remove
2.  save the oil and saute the onions and the carrots.  add the flour and bouquet garni
3.  add the wine and veal stock
4.  when thickened, put in the seared beef.
5.  let it cook to about 2 - 3 hours
6.  remove the vegetables and discard, reserve the sauce.
7.  in a separate saute pan cook the bacon.  when that's done add in the mushrooms
8.  return all of the ingredients to the pot and let simmer for about 30 - 45 min.

in the last 30 - 45 min, you can add carrots and/or potatoes.
