I haven't tried this in years, but have done it several times (back when I could plan on cooking over a wood fire). What I found was that it took a couple of hours of simmering to get the meat tender, it ended up tasting like boiled beef, and the vegetables turned to mush. best, jcp

PS, It just occurred to me that if you browned the meat at home (fairly thoroughly)
it would last a day or so longer.
