Return the browned beef to the pot. Add 2 cups of water, or enough to mostly cover the meat. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the beef is very tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. If the sauce is too thin, you can simmer uncovered for the last 10-15 minutes to reduce it, or thicken with a cornstarch slurry (1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water).
