Brunswick Stew with Hot Flour Tortillas

[cowgirl]

This Georgia Brunswick Stew recipe belongs to a talented smoking friend named Saiko. I wanted to give it a try... it was tasty!
He said the stew is served in Q joints in his area. I guess you can use chicken, potatoes, or add a lot of different things to make it your own. I just stayed with his recipe and loved it. :)

The original recipe calls for

2 lb. chopped BBQ meat (I used some smoked pork tenderloin)
2 TBSP of your favorite rub (I used HeadCountry)
2 28oz cans whole tomatoes, including the juice ( I used my home canned tomatoes)
2 11oz cans shoepeg corn (I used grilled sweet corn)
1 1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup your favorite BBQ sauce (I used Billy Sim's Hot BBQ sauce)
2 cups water
1 tsp black pepper
2 tsp salt
1/2 to 1 tsp cayenne
1 tsp hot sauce ( I used cholula)
1 stick butter





I cut the recipe in half and made a small pot full...









I added the butter and let it simmer all day....

Then made some fresh flour tortillas to go with it...

2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
mix well then add
1 Tablespoon of lard or shortening
mix well then add
1/2 to 3/4 cup of warm water
Let it rest for 15 minutes







I like to roll them out by hand... They usually aren't round, but I do not care. lol





Store them in a baggie to keep them pliable while making the rest of them.

I like hot tortillas slathered in butter, then rolled up.




My pot of hot Brunswick Stew...







It had a nice smokey flavor from the pork, and a nice kick of heat from the cayenne, cholupa and hot Q sauce. I liked it and will be making it again!

Thanks for checking out my stew.

Holey carp! That looks like a great meal for a nice crisp fall day.
I like them tortillas grilled, buttered and with a touch of honey. But I can't eat more than one. Diabetes just won't allow it.

Hell, that would fed my family right nice... Thanks...

Only here in Ks we would probably grill some bread kinda crispy stead of the tortillias...

Thank Jeanie, look wonderful as always, and given the temps up here it's perfect timing, can't wait to try it!

[cowgirl]

Thanks folks! I loved the flavor of the stew, I bet you could use any leftover smoked meat... even sliced smoked sausage would be nice.
Not sure if it would be authentic, lol but I bet it would be tasty.
