very close to my eastern NC granny's Brunswick Stew - add baby limas (all vegies she grew herself) & vary the meat with what was on hand - chicken, guinea, squirrel - always with a bit of country ham. Serve with crispy fried corncakes - mmmmm.

AND that is the end of this. If the phone doesn't ring? It's me.
If you are looking to ask me a question? I'm not here. I won't answer.
I do not assure you that the ingredients, amounts or even the directions in any recipe under my two accounts are correct due to the bad directional pointer in the database that is causing problems with the amounts or ingredients. I will also NOT assure you they are correct when the site claims they are fixed. Use at your own risk. They will be correct on my site. End of story.

Google the name. It's all over the net.
