I made this in the crock pot. The stew is okay...good would be an accurate rating. The ketchup does not really do the trick. It was a little bland...some kind of flavor boost is needed.<br/><br/>The next day the stew was better after everything had a chance to meld. I added some hot sauce to give it some spirit.
