Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Slicing the beef is a snap if you freeze it 20 to 30 minutes or until it's firm but not frozen.
  • tip 2
    To cook beef mixture on the stove-top, mix all ingredients in a Dutch oven. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 2 hours 30 minutes to 3 hours.
