How to make it

  • Arrange meat in single layer in a baking pan.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cut potatoes, carrots, onion, and celery in good-sized chunks and layer on top of meat.
  • Mix tomato sauce, water, sugar and pour over meat.
  • Season to taste.
  • Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons tapioca.
  • Do not stir.
  • Seal tightly in foil and bake at 325 degrees at least 2 hours.
  • Serves 4 people.
  • I make for a large crowd by adding extra meat and veggies.
  • Adjust sauce, sugar and tapioca as you double or triple recipe.
  • NOTE: Even another hour doesn't seem to hurt much if you are delayed.
  • You can turn heat way low and hold it for hours.
  • Don't peek during cooking time of 2 hours.
  • When you remove the foil you find the meat nicely browned with perfect gravy.
  • The tapioca acts as gravy thickener but don't use too much or you may wind up with gravy you can slice.
