This entire meal is cooked in one pot, something large enough to hold 6-8 cups of food. Preferably a heavy-bottomed pot or pan with a tight-fitting lid.



Step 2
Brown the ground beef over medium heat, set aside.


Step 3
In the same pot you browned the beef, add the butter, onion, celery, jalapeno, and bell pepper. Cook, stirring frequently until the vegetables start to sweat and turn slightly soft. Add the garlic and cook 1 more minute.






Step 4
Add the ground beef, rice, canned tomatoes (undrained!) and all the seasonings to the pan: White Pepper, Black Pepper, Cayenne Pepper, Smoked Paprika, Cumin, File Powder, Beef Bouillon, and Tomato Bouillon. Mix well.

Step 5
Add the 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Stir well, be sure to scrape the bottom of the pan with the wooden spoon, so none of the rice become stuck to the bottom. Once its boiling hard, turn it down to the lowest heat setting, like warm or low/warm, and put the lid on it.

Step 6
Continue cooking over the lowest heat setting with the lid on for about 5 minutes, then stir the rice vigorously again, being sure to scrape the bottom of the pan with the wooden spoon, so none of the rice become stuck to the bottom.
Step 7
Continue cooking over the lowest heat setting with the lid on for about 10 minutes, then stir the rice again, once again, being sure to scrape the bottom of the pan with the wooden spoon, so none of the rice become stuck to the bottom.
Step 8
Keep cooking the rice over low heat with the lid on, checking every 5 minutes or so to see if all the water has evaporated/been absorbed by the rice. when you can tip the pot slightly to the side and you don't see any liquid running around its done.
