Thank you for posting this... this was one of my Father's favorite meals, & he had been making out ever since he found the recipe on the Lipton onion soup box. Dad taught it tho me when I was very young, 12, perhaps. I've been wanting to make this for so long, & finally I turned to the internet for help! Now my brother & I will have happy memories while eating this delicious meal.

Thank you SO much for posting this recipe. I used to make this back in the late 60's and I'm thinking maybe I got the recipe from an onion soup mix package. I don't know where my recipe box is so this was very handy to come across. I serve it over noodles and it is always delicious. I wasn't sure about the seasonings but did remember most of them. Thanks again! Dottie

One of my favorite stand-bys. I found it years ago on a box of Lipton onions soup mix. I don't bother to cut up the meat--if cooked properly, it falls apart. I use lean beef/London broil and extra tomatoes so that I have leftovers. They are great as a pasta sauce with or without meat.

This is absolutely delicious! I made it exactly as written except for the onion soup. Instead I used extra garlic, extra red wine vinegar, sea salt and dried minced onion. My steak was 2.75 lbs and it was falling off the bone at 1 hour 15 min.

My grandmother used to make this recipe when I was a kid. It was my favorite meal she used to make. She never told anyone the recipe, but I was able to find the original recipe when I was going through all her recipes. Still one of my favorite dinners. I add a few veggies (onions, peppers, and mushrooms) just to the over all amount of beef I use. I have also cooked it in the slow cooker. Still comers out great.
