Super Bowl Stew
John Madden's Super Bowl Stew. My mom made this a lot in the winter when we were kids. She says the recipe came from Women's Day Magazine in the 80's some time. She lost the recipe at some point and it took me and my brother searching years for it!! I think he finally found it on cooks.com. It's a great hearty stew for cold day!!

- Combine flour, pepper and salt. Dredge beef cubes well on all sides with flour mixture. Reserve remaining flour for thicker gravy.

- Bring to a boil. Add meat.
- Cover; simmer 1 1/2 hours until meat is tender, adding more broth if mixture becomes too dry. For a thicker gravy, mix together 1/4 cup cold water and reserved flour mixture in small bowl and make a smooth paste. Remove meat and vegetables with a slotted spoon into serving bowl.
