Preparation
Step 1
In a large pot or dutch oven, saute meat in 1 T oil on medium-high heat until all sides are brown. Set aside on plate.
Saute celery and onion in remaining 1 T oil until onion is golden (about 10 minutes).
Add browned beef, water, broth, tomatoes with juices, carrots, potatoes, corn, bay leaves and garlic. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer uncovered until beef is almost tender, about an hour.
Add peas and hot sauce to soup. Cover and simmer until beef is tender, about 30 minutes longer.
Serve and season with freshly ground black pepper and hot sauce, if desired.
