What is Brunswick Stew?
Brunswick stew is a century-old recipe that hails from Brunswick, GA, and is sometimes referred to as Camp Stew. It’s a common dish served at community gatherings, events, or reunions.
Ingredients for Brunswick Stew
Meat: This Brunswick stew recipe uses both pork and chicken. Veggies: Frozen beans and corn don’t need to be thawed for Brunswick stew! Switch out frozen for canned beans or corn if desired. Broth: The broth is what makes the flavor of this stew so different from beef stew. The broth combines chicken stock, barbecue sauce, and a touch of Worcestershire. Diced tomatoes add a zesty flavor and balance the sweetness of the BBQ sauce.
Variations
Feel free to use any pre-cooked protein like ground beef, sliced sausage, or even bacon crumbles. Add diced potatoes, okra, bell peppers, chunks of zucchini, or peas. Add some zesty Cajun seasonings or a shot or two of Tabasco for a little kick of heat.
