Method
- STOVETOP:.
- Do NOT brown meat first.
- Combine meat, onions and celery with water and boil slowly for 30 minutes or so.
- Do NOT drain.
- Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 2.5 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Cover for up to the last hour, depending on the consistancy you preferr.
- We like it fairly thick so we rarely cover it.
- For best results, refrigerate, skim fat off of top, reheat for whatever you are in the mood for!
- CROCKPOT: Add all ingredients in crock pot.
- Cook for 6 hours.
