DASH. OF. THIS. AND. THAT

BBQ Steak Stew

 

Had a leftover BBQ london broil and thought hmmm could this possibly be turned into a stew.  It worked- the grilled meat becomes tender and works well with some African inspired flavorings. 

 

1 lb. leftover BBQ steak.

1 white potato diced small

2 sweet potatoes diced small

3 mini sweet peppers sliced thin

3 stalks of celery with leaves  diced small

1 onion  diced

2 teaspoons red wine vinegar

3 1/2 cups beef broth

1 teaspoon dark molasses

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 tablespoon mustard

2 tablespoons catsup

1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce

1 bay leaf

1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

2 teaspoons paprika

1 teaspoon curry powder

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoons flour

1.  Place the first 18 ingredients (or all ingredients except the flour)  in a large sauce pot and bring to     a boil over a medium heat, stirring occasionally.

2.  Sprinkle the flour on the surface of boiling stew, do not stir for 2 minutes.

3.  Stir the stew and cover,  cook for one hour, stirring occasionally.

4.  Remove the cover and continue to cook for one hour more on a low simmer, stirring occasionally.

5.  Steak should start to fall apart, taste and adjust seasonings.
