My Beef Barbecue

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a VERY large heavy pot.

Simmer uncovered over low heat until beef falls to shreds, stirring occasionally.

This will take 5 to 6 hours; watch carefully the last hour to make sure that it is not sticking.

Mixture should be very thick.

The mixture fills a large pot before cooking but becomes a small amount by the time it is cooked.

While cooking I sometimes add chopped green peppers, celery, bay leaf, or carrots.

Serve on hamburger buns with mustard.
