Stew Meat Old Fashion Way

Mix flour, salt and pepper, garlic salt, basil and thyme in a bag well; add stew meat and shake until coated well.

Place stew meat in hot oil in large skillet or Dutch oven; cook until brown and add onion and beef broth.

Cover tightly and simmer slowly until meat is tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Add mushrooms the last 5 minutes of cooking.

Serve over cooked noodles or rice. Serves 4 to 5.
