Step 1

In a large, but deep-pan, cast-iron, or ceramic pot, add your trinity (onions, mushrooms,bell peppers) and protein. Sautee until everything is caramelized/translucent. The volume-density of the items should have decreased.

Step 2

Add in your dry seasonings and corn starch. Mix for 10 minutes until well combined, scraping the bottom of the pan with a sturdy or wooden spoon as you go, a deep color will start appearing becoming stuck to the pan. DONT PANIC, this is all wonderful flavor according to Mama Zee. Just keep scraping that pan until nothing is no longer stuck to the bottom.

Step 3

Add in the Worcestershire and liquid smoke

Step 4

Slowly begin adding the beef broth while scraping the bottom goodness off the pan, yet again.

Step 5

Add 1 cup of broth and mix for a few minutes.

Step 6

Cover, lower the heat down to medium-low and let cook for 10 minutes.

Step 7

Repeat the above two steps of this list, 3-4 more times over. Roughly about 30-40 minutes worth.

Step 9

Serve over rice, potatoes, the starch of choice, or eat as is.
