"I tinkered with a few recipes and came up with this one. I have tinkered with this recipe and added celery once and leeks another time, for me all it did was add to the chunkiness, not the flavor; but that's really up to your preference."

Footnotes
- Cook's Note:
- If you have time you can brown the beef, but it's just as good without the beef browned because the slow cooker makes the beef very tender.
- Partner Tip
- Try using a Reynolds® slow cooker liner in your slow cooker for easier cleanup.
