I am cooking a Beef stew in Guinness.Cooking time says 3hrs.
Can I use other meat instead of stewing meat ?
If so, should I reduce cooking time ?

Can you recommend other cuts of beef I can use if I cannot find stewing beef ?
I also have to put in dumplings in the stew in the last 30 minutes of cooking

I can also make this stew in lamb, chicken, pork,
same Q applies to these meats.
Thanks
Thanks everyone really helpful answers.
I am cooking the stew today.
