Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering, and place the onion and beef into the hot oil. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the steak seasoning, stir the meat and onions well, and sprinkle with 1 more teaspoon of seasoning. Add the celery, and cook and stir until the meat is browned, about 10 minutes.
- Pour in 2 cups of water to just cover the meat, onion, and celery, bring to a boil, and stir and scrape the browned bits of flavor from the bottom of the pan. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until the beef is very tender, about 2 hours. Remove the meat and celery pieces from the pan, set the meat aside, and discard the celery.
- In a bowl, whisk together the gravy mix with 4 cups of water. Add the mixture to the juices in the pot, bring to a boil, and stir the meat back into the gravy mixture. Stir in the turnip and carrots, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in the potatoes, cover, and simmer an additional 20 minutes.
- To make dumplings, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Cut the shortening into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter or two knives until the mixture looks crumbly. Pour in the milk, and lightly stir the mixture just until it combines to form a dough.
- Remove 2 cups of gravy from the pot, and reserve. Drop the dumplings by heaping tablespoon onto the meat and vegetables in the pot, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Do not peek until the time is up. Pour the reserved gravy back over the dumplings, stir lightly, and serve.

- Brown the beef: Browning the beef before stewing it adds flavor and depth to the dish. Be sure to brown the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and ensure even browning.
- Cook the stew low and slow: Beef stew is a dish that benefits from long, slow cooking. This allows the flavors to develop and the beef to become tender. Aim to cook the stew for at least two hours, or until the beef is fall-apart tender.
- Use a variety of vegetables: Beef stew is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Feel free to add any vegetables you like, such as carrots, celery, potatoes, onions, and peas.
- Season the stew well: Beef stew should be well-seasoned with salt, pepper, and herbs. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
- Make the dumplings from scratch: Homemade dumplings are a great addition to beef stew. They're easy to make and add a delicious, fluffy texture to the dish.
