Cooking

  3. Add the beef broth, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir everything together, ensuring the spices are evenly distributed.
  4. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes.
  5. After simmering, taste your stew and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary.
  6. Ladle the Texas Cowboy Stew into bowls and top with your favorite garnishes, such as shredded cheese or fresh herbs.
