Does this have any other uses besides beef stew?

I use this or similar products instead of the enclosed packet when making cheap ramen.

Not a bad idea I guess, but I like the oriental flavor ones.
Flavor the water when you make grain dishes. I'm eating some ptitim I made with Better Than Bouillon right now.
I recently had a hankering for some chinese food while I was at work. That not being realistically attainable I instead decided to make a beef and broccoli soup for the du jour. It turned out ridiculously delicious, a deep dark rich asian spiced broth with simmered bits of flank steak and broccoli quickly blanched and added to serve. I didn't use this particular base because I was at work, but beef base being beef base, this would work just as well. it's what I use at home. So yes, there are a couple of other uses.

Use it as part of a marinade for any beef product.
Use it with some water, salt, pepper, a bit of wine, and some corn starch or flour as a thickener for a sauce to go with any beef meal.
Add a little to basically any beef meal to enhance the flavors.
