Good Stuff
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've made this a few times. The family really likes it. Love the chilly flavour. I substituted minced tomatoes for the... tomatoe sauce and didn't use turnip just the rutabaga. Read more

Love the flavor!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was an awesome Sunday dinner recipe. I cut down to 1/3 c. brown sugar, and added 1 tsp. of Kosher salt and 1 tsp.... paprika to the tomato sauce. I also threw in a few extra potatoes. There was quite a bit of sauce -- which we lapped up with some crusty French bread. The dish was such a hit that there were NO leftovers. Every bite was devoured! Thanks Sandra!Read more

Great Crockpot Meal
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Started crockpot this morning and cooked on low for 12 hrs. When I came home it was ready to eat. Beef tender and the sauce... had just enough kick in it to set it apart from other crockpot beef recipes. Did cut down sugar to 1/3 cup and added a bit more tomato sauce. This is a keeper!Read more

great!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I substituted fresh crushed garlic for the powdered and used dijon mustard because i didn't have any powdered. I also added... some balsamic vinegar (about a 1/2 cup) and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes for a little kick. The beef was tender and the veggies were soft but not mushy. Next time I might hold back on some of the chili powder, it was a little overpowering. Overall this was really great especially for a first time slow cooker!Read more

disgusting
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I made the recepie exactly as they said and it was absolutely gross! Don't get me wrong I LOVE root vegetables and stews, but... this was way too sickly sweet even adding less sugar and the root vegetable in the sauce were sour! I know they were fresh so that was not the problem. definately not a keeper, too bad because she usually has awesome recepies!Read more
