Directions

  1. Season the beef with the salt and black pepper.

  2. Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook until well browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the skillet. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat.

  4. Stir the stock, vinegar and brown sugar in a small bowl until the mixture is smooth. Stir the stock mixture in the skillet and heat to a boil. Return the beef to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 1 1/2 hours.

  5. Uncover the skillet and cook for 30 minutes or until the beef is fork-tender and the vegetables are tender.
