As the meat gets brown, transfer it to another dish and then add more meat.

Do this until all your meat is browned.

It does not need to be completely cooked, just browned.

Now add more butter and oil to the pan you just browned the meat in.

Now stick it in the oven for 3-4 hours, topped with a lid.

Check it every once in a while to make sure it is not cooking down too much.

I serve this over wide egg noodles, or alongside boiled potatoes, or yummy jazzed up mashed potatoes, with a loaf of French bread.
