Step-By-Step Instructions:

  1. Place ground chuck in a 2-gallon stockpot and brown over medium heat. Remove meat and drain it well. Wipe drippings from pot.

  2. Return meat to stockpot, then add tomatoes and water. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered, until tomatoes are soft and a juicy broth is created, about 20 minutes.

  3. Add remaining ingredients, cover, and continue cooking 60 additional minutes to allow flavors to blend.
