Wow! This is a super-fast version of this recipe. The one I am used to requires cooking in the oven for about 2 hours. I liked the short cut using the zip-lock baggie, but it came out a little bland - I will re-work this recipe again and adjust the seasoning. Maybe it was the reduced-sodium beef broth? I will re-post another review next time I make this and let you know what I find out.
