Tips and Tricks
- Type of Beef - I usually use stew meat for this recipe, but you can also use beef chuck roast diced into 1 inch pieces if you your grocery store is out of stew meat.
- Vegetables - Also, use whatever veggies you love and have on hand. I love using carrots, potatoes and green beans. But this recipe would also be delicious with sweet potatoes, celery or peas instead.
- Prepare Vegetables - Try to cut the vegetables about the same size so they cook evenly and do not become mushy.
