Step 1

To get started, bring 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot. 

Step 2

While waiting on the water to boil, cut the beef short ribs into bite-sized pieces and add them to the water.

Step 3

Add in diced tomatoes, potatoes, diced onion, parsley, garlic powder, beef bouillon cubes, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, celery salt, bay leaves, and stir.

Step 4

Then add carrots, celery, black-eyed peas, butter beans, corn, and macaroni.

Step 5

Heat on high, stirring occasionally until the stew mixture comes to a boil.

Step 6

Once you have reached a boil, cover with a lid, lower heat enough to keep it simmering.  Continue to simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
