my mother served this dish many times, and myself. this recipe was in our family for years, she place this meat and potatoes and carrots alone with onion and bell pepper, in a alumli foil pan and baked in oven, it also produce a very good taste gravey you could use allowing enough for guest to have for a topping on their pototoes. This is easy and after placing in the oven, you can let the cooking begin and find another chore to do.
