For a vegetarian option, ensure your barbecue sauce and bouillon cube are vegetarian-friendly.
Feel free to add a bay leaf or a sprig of fresh thyme to the stew while it simmers for extra depth of flavor. Remember to remove them before serving.
If you prefer a thicker stew, you can mash some of the lentils against the side of the pot with a spoon.
This stew is even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to meld together.
Try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.

    I made this in my slow cooker, and it turned out great. I just combined all the ingredients and cooked it on low for 6-8 hours.

  • Rhiannon Morissette

    So easy to make, and perfect for a weeknight dinner. I'll definitely be making this again.

  • Dayne Leffler

    I was skeptical about the apple at first, but it really works! I used a Granny Smith for a bit of tartness.

  • Ruben Dickens

    I added some chopped chorizo for a heartier stew, and it was a hit!

    The barbeque sauce is a genius addition! It gives the stew a wonderful smoky flavor.

    I love the unique combination of flavors. The apple adds a touch of sweetness that's unexpected but delicious.

    I substituted the apple with sweet potato and it was still very tasty!
