gently nudge the sauce into the corners and around the edges if needed.
Cover the glass casserole dish tightly with aluminum foil to trap moisture and help the beef become tender as it bakes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the beef is very tender when pierced with a fork and the sauce has thickened into a creamy gravy. Avoid uncovering frequently, as that releases steam and can slow down the cooking.
Carefully
