- Spray a lipped cookie sheet or roasting pan with cooking oil (lightly).
- Put all the meat and vegetables on sheet and roast at 450 degrees for 45-50 minutes until nicely browned.
- Shake pan several times while roasting.
- After browning, put all the ingredients into a stockpot or large crockpot.
- Bring to a boil (or strong simmer in crockpot).
- Cover and reduce heat to med-low and allow to simmer 21/2 hours on stovetop, 4hrs.
