• Add the tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and pepper, 2 teaspoons onion powder and garlic powder, and three tablespoons Worcestershire sauce to a large mixing bowl. Fold it all together and pour over the steak in the 9x13 baking dish.
• Cover the dish and cook on 350 degrees for 1½ - 2½ hours covered. (The total cook time depends on the thickness of your meat and the cut of meat you use. It could require more time in the oven if it's not as tender as desired.)
