Notes

Steak- I like to get the stew meat- so that the pieces of steak are already cut for me. But, you can cut it yourself. I have done it both ways, and I usually get the stew meat if it is on sale, put it in the freezer so that I have it handy for this specific dish.
Beef Broth- I really like the Better Than Bouillon Beef. The flavors are great! However, if you prefer, you can use regular beef bouillon or 8 oz of beef broth.
