<\/span>Brunswick Stew<\/span><\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n
This bold and flavorful Brunswick Stew is bursting with flavor from pulled pork, roasted chicken, corn, tomatoes and lima beans all in a tangy sweet broth seasoned with tomato sauce, barbecue sauce, and a perfect blend of spices. With already cooked meats this recipe comes together quickly and easily.<\/span>
<\/div>This tomatoey stew can be traced to both Brunswick, Georgia, and Brunswick, Virginia, two Southern towns that have both enjoyed the legacy of the name.<\/span><\/div>\n

      <\/span>Notes<\/span><\/h3>
        \n
      • This is my go-to recipe for leftover smoked pork and roasted chicken. You can use all of one or the other but I think it tastes better with both, You can also use different percentages of each. If you are a hunter or live off the land try squirrel, rabbit, or other game meat. Ground beef and ground pork or other less expensive options. <\/li>\n
      • Other vegetables you might add include potatoes, butter beans, celery, and okra<\/li>\n
      • The stew is a hearty meal in itself. However, if I am expecting company or have extended family over for dinner I like to serve it with coleslaw, Cornbread, and Southern Fried Apples.<\/li>\n
      • I use a Kansas City-style bbq sauce which is a little thinner, light on sugar with a little bit of kick. This is just the way I like it. I think it is a good match for the stew.<\/li>\n
      • After spooning the stew into bowls drizzle with just a little bit of extra barbecue sauce. It makes a great presentation and a little bit of added flavor.<\/li>\n
      • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8313,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[134,2881,2506,136,4504,2194,697],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8316","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-american","category-boiled","category-dinner","category-entree","category-southern","category-stew-dish","category-stove-top"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Brunswick-Stew.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8316","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8316"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8316\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8317,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8316\/revisions\/8317"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8313"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8316"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8316"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8316"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
