On the menu tonight, Brunswick Stew!
Despite me ordering Brunswick Stew almost every time I go to a BBQ joint, I have never made it, until now. There a million different varieties, some of the older recipes I read include squirrel and opossum. I actually had a version that had squirrel and chicken in it and it was fantastic. The squirrel tasted like… you guessed it – chicken. I made mine with pulled pork, smoked chicken, and smoked sausage. I got the pulled pork, smoked sausage and smoked chicken from one of my favorite BBQ restaurants.
For the veggies, you can also use whatever you like, but the common theme is a tomato based sauce and almost always with lima beans, corn, and one or two other veggies. I had some canned green beans and corn that I wanted to use up, so I used those along with a freshly diced onion.
Since I used the Crock Pot and purchased the meats already prepared, this was one of the quickest and easiest meals that I’ve ever made. You simply put all the ingredients in the Crock Pot, set it on low for 4 hrs and that’s IT!
I hope you you’ll try my version and let me know what you think.
