  • Easy & Yummy

    My husband and I really don\'t like cooking and we\'re not great at it, but this recipe is very easy and it makes a filling supper. What\'s more, it reheats very well-very important for us. We did try this recipe in the crock pot, but it did not work and we ended up throwing it out because the meat was dried out yet still not done.

  • Add some beef boullion for flavor

    wadel05 - December 1, 2007 07:23:03 PM PST
    I made this the other night for my wife and 2 boys. We used low sodium beef broth, which made an almost tasteless broth. We added 1 cube of beef boullion, and this turned out to be one of our favorite meals.

  • Too bland

    Damien J - December 6, 2007 07:54:31 PM PST
    It certainly was easy to make, but was bland. Someone suggested adding a beef bullion cube - great idea. But I think that by browning the meat cubes in butter first to sear in the meat flavor, adding fresh herbs instead of dry -- like a sprig of fresh rosemary, sage, and thyme - adding some garlic, a dash of lemon, a dash of chilli pepper, and making a flour rue to thicken the gravy towards the end of cooking instead of instant Tapioca might make this still easy and yet brilliant.

    This can be prepared in a slow cooker by just combing ingredients and letting them cook on slow for 8-9 hours .... and the fat is too high, use lean beef cuts, the slow cooker will make them tender.
