Delicious sauce. Did not thicken with corn starch, and it was perfect over noodles.

Added 14 oz can of diced tomatoes and few slices of peppers on top of onion mixture and slow cooked on high 4 hours. Then added thick red and green pepper strips and tomato wedges on top and cooked another hour.

Fantastic meal.

it tasted great and i will definitely make it again. i have shared it once already to me it seemed to not have an adequate amount of liquids for cooking 5 - 6 hours. i doubled the liquid ingredients.

This is a family favorite! It used to be one of our "special" meals, but now my young son loves it and requests it often. I usually double the ingredients for the marinade, and it helps it to remain moist.

So good! Even my picky-eater kids loved it. Didn't have time for slow-cooker, so made on stove top and used stew meat. Still excellent! We like it with rice.
