Directions
Roll chunks of meat in flour..shake off the excess and brown meat in the oil in a big skillet or stewpot. When the meat gets nice and brown throw in the onion and cook about 5 mins. Add the other stuff..saving beef broth until last. Add broth to barely cover the meat..being sure to scrape up all the good stuff that sticks to the bottom of the pan. Let simmer at least one hour uncovered..or until the meat gets tender. Cook time varies widely depending on the meat. Thin round steak will be done in about an hour. Add more broth or water if needed to come out with a thick brown gravy and tender meat. Serve with flour tortillias..picante sauce...rice..beans and salad on the side.
