Ingredients

  • 28 Oz. Can of stewed tomatoes with onions celery, green peppers
  • 10.5 Oz. can of Cream of Mushroom Soup
  • One onion Sliced or Quartered (If you want to eat the onions in your gravy slice them)
  • Flour Salt and pepper
  • 2 Lbs. Top or round sirloin 1.5-2 inches thick I use top sirloin steak usually
  • 1 T - 2 T Worcestershire sauce depending on how strong you like that flavor
  • 1 t Better than Bouillon Beef
  • Optional: My mom always adds a sliced green pepper I usually skip it as my family prefers it without the green pepper.

Instructions

  • Dredge beef and season it with salt and pepper. Then sear it in a cast iron skillet.
  • Combine cream of mushroom and stewed tomatoes in your baking dish with one can of water. At this point, I also add Worcestershire sauce, Better Than Bouillon, salt, and pepper. Add in the beef and smother it in the gravy/sauce.
  • Bake 350 for 20 mins and then reduce heat to 325 for 2-2.5 hours or a little more for it to turn out wonderfully tender. You can do a fast version of this with higher heat, just keep in mind your beef will not be as tender.
