Additional Comments

If using a dutch oven after all the ingredients are in the pot, bring to just about the boil, then reduce heat source and simmer for at least 2 hours stirring occasionally. If you want partially covered, but stir every 10 minutes or so to make sure it does not stick and burn on the bottom. I ended up taking the cover off for the last hour of cooking.
