Ingredients
- 1-1/2 lbs 1-inch-thick chuck steak boned and trimmed of excess fat
- 3 tbsp peanut oil
- 1 medium white onion peeled and sliced
- 2 to 3 cups Basic Brown Soup Stock or canned beef broth
- 1 cup blackberries fresh or frozen
- 1 tbsp light honey
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Broil the chuck steak in the oven until brown on both sides. In the old days this would have been done over the fire, so you might wish to quickly barbecue the meat in order to increase the flavor. Set the meat aside to cool.
- In a Dutch oven heat the oil and brown the onions. Cut the meat into bite-size pieces and add to the pot. Add the blackberries and enough beef stock to barely cover the meat. Stir in the honey and simmer the meat, covered, until it is very tender, about 1 hour. If the berries are too tart add more honey to taste. Add salt and serve in bowls.
