1/4 cup cooking oil
1. Heat the oil in an iron skillet or dutch oven and brown the onion.

3. Add a cup of water to the mixture, followed by the tomato paste, celery, and pepper.
4. Stir until mixed well, cover and simmer.

Description:
"This was my Dad's recipe. He used to make it when he took his Boy
Scout troop on campouts. My brother, sister, and I loved it too, and
would frequently request it."

NOTES : I like to brown the meat first, because sometimes the meat doesn't cook all the way. Your choice, I wrote it as given to me by Dad. It's the basis for my Chili recipe.
