    1 1/2  cups          Dry red wine
    3      tablespoons   Extra virgin olive oil
    2      tablespoons   Dry minced onion
    1      teaspoon      Thyme
    1      tablespoon    Parsley flakes
    1                    Bay leaf
      1/2  teaspoon      Pepper
    4      pounds        Stew beef -- 1" cubes
      1/3  cup           Flour

 marinade over all.  Place liner in base. Cover and cook on auto 6-7 hours; 
 or low 8-10 hours; or high 4-5 hours.
