Mildred’s Baked Stew

This is a great recipe for a cool day.  It’s also unusual, in that you bake it in the oven.  Add some bread or rolls and dinner is served. 
MILDRED’S OVEN STEW

1 pound cubed London broil steak (original recipe calls for stew meat, but we prefer London broil)

1 onion, chopped

2-3 stalks celery, sliced

5-6 carrots, cut in chunks 

4-5 potatoes, cubed

1 can green beans with liquid

1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce

1 cup water

1 package dry brown gravy mix

1 tablespoon brown sugar

salt and pepper to taste Combine all ingredients in a large Dutch oven or stockpot. No need to brown the meat first  Stir and cover.    

Bake @ 250 for 5 hours, stirring occasionally.

Yes, you can use the crock pot or cook it on top of the stove.  But the texture and taste are slightly different… It’s just more yummy cooked in the oven :)
