I found this website that has tons of slow cooker recipes. There is more than one beef stew, but you should be able to find one you'd like.

Add carrots and celery. Cover and cook 30 to 40 minutes longer. To thicken gravy, remove 2 cups hot liquid. Using a separate bowl, combine 1/4 cup water and cornstarch until smooth. Mix with a little hot liquid and return mixture to pot. Stir and cook until bubbly.
Check out Foodnetwork.com....they have some great and simple ideas.
Sure, first got to the grocery store and get a pouch of Wylers Stew Starter, it has all the seasonings you need, just add water. Next add stew meat (raw is ok, the cooker will cook it), add some sliced carrots, a potato, some corn kernels (sweet) and celery. Put the cooker in the morning and by dinner time it'll be ready.
