Special Slow-Cooked Beef image

This hearty entree is easy to prepare for Sunday dinner. While the beef is slow cooking, the cook has lots of time to attend to the other details. With mashed potatoes on the side, it's comfort food for the cool months ahead. -Juli George, Grandville, Michigan

This recipe was a disaster! The beef was dry and overcooked, and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The beef was a bit tough, but the flavor was still good. I think I might try cooking it for a little longer next time.
