Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef chuck roast into 1.5-inch cubes and season with some salt and pepper.

Step 8

Cover and reduce heat to low. Let it simmer gently for about 2.5 hours or until the beef is tender.

Slice the mushrooms and peel and cube the sweet potatoes.

Step 10

Add mushrooms and sweet potatoes to the pot, stir well, and continue to simmer for another 30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender.
