MAIN DISHES - Beef Stew

Use 13 x 9 pan or heavy baking dish.  

Line pan with 2# beef stew cut into 1-1/2" cubes. Remove fat, but do not brown meat.

Mix 2 tsp. salt with 2-1/2 Tbls. of minute tapioca and 1 Tbls. sugar. Sprinkle over meat.

Peel and slice 3 - 4 small onions.  Diagonally slice a stalk or two of celery.  Cut about 6 carrots into chunks.  Cut 4 - 5 potatoes into chunks. Add vegetables to baking dish on top of meat.

Add 3/4 cup of V8 juice.  No More!

Cover with heavy foil and seal tightly.  (Use several layers of foil if you don't have the heavy grade foil.  The lid to a pan or baking dish will not seal tight enough.) Bake 250° for 5 or more hours.

The V8 juice and liquid from the ingredients form a tasty gravy and the tapioca slightly thickens it.
