Virginia Brunswick Stew

(about 5 ⅓ oz) thick-cut bacon, (chopped)

onions, (diced)

potatoes

tomato paste

rotisserie chicken (about 3 lbs.), (meat removed and chopped (about 4 cups))

(28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, (not drained)

corn kernels

okra ((optional))

light brown sugar

white vinegar ((apple cider vinegar

Worcestershire sauce

salt and ground black pepper, (to taste)

In a large pot, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until almost crisp, about 5 minutes. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 more minutes.

Add chicken broth and potatoes; bring to a boil. Boil until potatoes begin to soften, about 10 minutes.

Reduce heat to low. Stir in the tomato paste until dissolved. Add chicken, diced tomatoes, corn, lima beans, okra (if using), brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.

Cover and simmer for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally. The stew should be very thick. If you'd like it thicker, simmer uncovered. To thin, add more broth or water. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Ladle into bowls, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve hot.

Wow!  What an easy, fast, and delicious recipe!  I made it according to the recipe and then stirred in about 1/2 cup or more of ketchup during the last few minutes of cooking.  My hubby and my 97- and 99-year old parents loved it!  I'm so excited to have lots leftover to freeze for at least three more meals.

Very good. A hit of Sriracha for those that like some heat. A drizzle of bbq sauce for those that like it a little sweeter. This is a people pleaser!!!

Wow. My kids loved this. I used black eyed peas instead of Lima and leftover marinara for the tomato paste. I thought this would be a one time recipe but it will be in rotation for the rest of the cool season.

This looks very similar to the way I learned to make Brunswick Stew back in the mid-'70s out in Powhatan County. My first teaching job was at a school that had a big fundraiser in the fall, and stew was one of the top sellers. As another poster mentioned, the men cooked all night in huge cauldrons.

No okra, tomato paste, or vinegar. My recipe calls for butter, which really richens the taste. Because I'm an overachiever (LOL), I can/freeze all the veggies over the summer. the firs

This is the first thing to go at my annual fall party!

This recipe is the BEST! Just like my mum made, from her mother's recipe from my home in Hanover and Henrico counties, Virginia!!
Definitely a comfort food for me, this non-apologetically replaced Montanan! I've been making this in Montana for potlucks, church meals, cook overs, healing meals, recipe sharing, etc., and it's a been a rave - and ravenous - hit!
AND sharing this recipe to all who want and NEED it.
Far surpasses the simple "chicken soup" for the soul. 
Really, it's so good and wholesome it's not just a food, but a cure-all, and a THERPY!
Food IS medicine!
Thanks SOOOOO much!
Spread the love, y'all!!!!
