1 teaspoon(s) fresh cracked black pepper or to taste
1/2 gallon cold water

Steps:

Ask your meat man to cut up beef for stew. ( I use a good Flank Steak, cooking time allows to get tender. ) Roll pieces of stew meat and rib eye in the seasoned flour. Place Floured meat in a hot Skillet with the butter and allow to brown.
Add the chopped onion, carrots, red pepper flakes, and turnips. Add the Worcestershire sauce, Cook on medium until softened. Place the browned meat into a Large Dutch Oven, add the vegetables and cook till they are softened.
Dissolve beef bouillon cubes in water. Pour the bouillon/water mixture in with the stew/ stew. Add Mushrooms to Dutch Oven. Season with salt and pepper.
Slow cook in oven at 295 degrees, and until beef is tender for 2 to 3 hours. Stir every 20 to 30 minutes and keep enough water to keep the gravy to your liking.
Serve with a Potato Bread. Garnish with srings of rosemary. Enjoy !!!
