1. Cook beef in 4-quart Dutch oven over medium heat, turning about every 6 minutes, until brown on all sides. Remove Dutch oven from heat.

2. Sprinkle salt and pepper over beef. Spread horseradish over all sides of beef. Add water to Dutch oven. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 1 1/2 hours. Add potatoes, carrots and onions to Dutch oven. Cover and simmer about 1 hour or until beef and vegetables are tender.
