Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. If it is cool or cold weather, it is best to put this in the oven (or a crock pot) and let cook for a while.
  2. Take a large pot (I use a dutch oven) on med high heat and add whole bottle of ketchup.
  3. Fill empty bottle with water and rinse out bottle with it, Pour this water in pot with ketchup.
  4. Add carrots, celery, potatoes, garlic and onion.
  5. When all of this has been cooking for a 1/2 hour or so, coat meat with flour and brown in large pan with a little oil.
  6. Cover with a lid and let this simmer for a few minutes.
  7. Meat will be soooooo tender.
  8. Add meat mixture (oil, drippings and all) to the veggies.
  9. Mix well.
  10. Add the salt and pepper.
  11. Let this cook until it is thick and the veggies are tender.
  12. The secret is the ketchup.
  13. The stew doesn't taste a thing like ketchup though.
