I made it a couple of years ago, not long after the recipe first appeared. It's fantastic. I added a little bay leaf, a couple of beef bouillon cubes, and then made a beurre manie to thicken it as it cooked. Cooked for a couple of hours at 325 but should have used 275. It's terrific -- give it a try! Wish I could add a photo, but I have have Facebook....
