There is rich soup and there is a pot of boiled stuff.....

To get some really good flavor, first start with sautéing the veggies (celery, onion, garlic, carrots) in butter until they get a little soft. I then add the meat, make room for the meat to touch the pot bottom and sauté it on all sides. Add spices anytime within the sauté process. This develops flavor and then you can begin adding water or broth a little at a time, cook stir, scrape bottom, little more water, cook, little more water.
