Preparation
Step 1
Heat the shortening in a heavy 5 qt Dutch-oven
style pot. Dry the beef well with a paper towel.
Add the beef and let brown for about five minutes.
Add the onion, green pepper, salt and pepper.
Brown well until all the moisture evaporates,
about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with paprika.
Give it a good stir. Add the 4 cups of water and
the 2 bouillon cubes, stirring to loosen up the
browned bits on the bottom. Bring to a boil.
Stir in the slurry and bring to a boil again,
stirring until thickened. Add the red pepper flakes,
stir. Cover and reduce the heat to low and let
simmer for 2-1/2 hours until the beef is fork tender.
