Notes

– To make this stew even heartier, consider adding other vegetables such as carrots, celery, or bell peppers.

– To thicken the stew, consider adding a slurry (a mixture of cornstarch and water) to the pot.

– If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

– To freeze leftovers, transfer the stew to a freezer-safe container and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.

– To reheat frozen stew, transfer it to a pot and heat over low heat until warmed through.

-For best flavor, make the stew ahead of time and let it sit for a day or two before serving. This allows the flavors to develop even more. Enjoy your Old Hickory House Brunswick Stew!
