This Brunswick Stew is a hearty dish made with veggies, poultry, pork, and an out-of-this-world barbecue-flavored broth. It’s just the thing to keep your belly full on a cold night!
Melt the butter in a soup pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until tender, about 5-6 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to cook for 1 minute.
Stir in the tomatoes, lima beans, corn, tomato sauce, barbecue sauce, chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, tabasco sauce, salt, pepper, and thyme.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower to maintain a simmer, and continue to cook for 15 minutes.
Stir in the chicken and pork. Continue to simmer for 5-10 minutes or until the meats are heated through.
Notes
This is a great way to use up leftover chicken and pulled pork.
Make this soup more filling and stretch it further by adding potatoes, celery, or okra.
Feel free to use your favorite BBQ sauce for this recipe. I usually use Sweet Baby Ray’s or a Kansas City-style BBQ sauce.
