I'm not a big fan of tips but I went back for seconds on this one and that says a lot! Made a slight change in the gravy in that I used 2 T of cornstarch to 3 T of water for a thicker gravy. Sure to be repeated as the pot was bone dry when we got thru out meal. Made for The Aussie/NZ RS#34.

    The meat kind of fell apart after about 8 hours but the taste was delicious!

    Love recipes that just kind of sit there and does it's thing with very few ingredients. My husband loved the gravy. Served over gnocchi.
