Brown beef in hot oil in heavy Dutch oven, add 2 cups water, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 1-1/2 hours.
Add carrots and remaining 2 cups water, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes. Add remaining ingredients, cover and simmer an additional 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Enjoy! Yield: about 3 quarts.

Dont know if it's the cocktail sauce or turnip that really adds flavor--but my quilting bee loves it and always asks for seconds.
