Recipe by Jelzabeth

This recipe is the best that we have tried. It can be cooked in the slow cooker. If the onions are precooked, it can be simmered on low for at least one hour. The last time we made it, it was very thin, so we had to reduce it by cooking longer with the lid removed. We will perfect the recipe further by reducing the amount of beef broth used.
