INGREDIENTS:
* 3 tablespoons steak sauce
* 2 chicken bouillon cubes
* 1 tsp. salt
* 1/2 tsp. pepper
* 1 tsp. sugar
* 1/2 c. hot water
* 2 pounds chicken thighs
* 1 lb. lean stewing beef, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
* 1/2 cup chopped onion

PREPARATION:
Combine steak sauce, bouillon cubes, salt, pepper, sugar and hot water in slow cooker; stir to blend ingredients. Add remaining ingredients except flour; stir gently. Cover and cook on LOW for 7 to 9 hours; or on HIGH for 4 hours. About 5 hours into cooking (2 1/2 hours if cooking on high), remove chicken. Remove chicken meat from bones, chop, and return to the crockpot; stir well and finish cooking. To thicken gravy, make a smooth paste of the flour and 1/4 cup of cold water. Stir into stew in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on HIGH until thickened.
