Brown the beef in the pot, adding the diced onions halfway through. When the beef is browned, add the garlic and let it cook another minute. The onions should not be browned.Add the red wine and let it cook down for a couple minutes, stirring frequently.

Add barley. Turn heat down to low and let simmer for at least a couple hours for best flavor. Remove Bay leaves before serving.
