Directions
This recipe is a standby we've fed to many a branding crew. It's hearty and filling - important requirements when you're feeding a bunch of cowboys!
In a Dutch oven, brown beef in oil on both sides.
Add onion and celery when meat is almost browned.
Add broth; cover and simmer 3 to 4 hours or until meat is tender.
Remove meat; cool and shred.
Drain vegetables, reserving 1½ cups broth.
Skim off any fat.
Return the meat, vegetables and broth to Dutch oven; add the remaining ingredients.
Simmer until heated through.
This keeps well in a slow cooker on low heat.
Remove bay leaf before serving.
