    3 shallots, 1 onion, 3 cups carrots, 4 cloves garlic, 5 cloves garlic

Combine the butter and flour to make a paste, and stir into the broth/Guinness mixture, if the gravy is not thick enough.  You may remove the Rockcrok®Dutch Oven from the Rockcrok®Digital Slow Cooker Stand to finish gravy on the stove top, if you prefer.
