  • 1-pound round steak - cut into thin strips
  • 1 tablespoon Bacon grease or oil (bacon grease may be one of the tastiest substances known to man, and it has no Trans fats)
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 green pepper - cut into strips
  • 1-tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1-teaspoon sugar
  • 1 beef bouillon cube
  • 1-tablespoon cornstarch mixed with a little bit of COLD waterPrep time - 20 minutes
  • Cook time - 1 hour and 10 minutes
  • 1 1/2-hour totalBrown steak strips, onion, and celery in oil. Add black pepper, sugar water and bouillon cube. Stir, cover, reduce heat and simmer about 1 hour. Add green pepper and simmer 5-10 minutes or longer. Simmering longer at this point will reduce the flavor of the green peppers. Some people like them nearly raw, others will prefer them well cooked. It’s just a matter of personal taste. Blend cornstarch/water and soy sauce, add to steak mixture and stir until sauce thickens
