GRANDMA'S MULLIGAN STEW



Grandma's Mulligan Stew image

Grandma was born in the 1800's in Kansas. This is her recipe for the perfect fall meal. Crops were ripe and the weather was cooling. (I also like to freeze the needed veggies to make this family favorite during the winter months.)

Provided by Ishi3179

Categories     Stew

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2-2 lbs ground beef
3 zucchini, about 6 in. long, sliced
3 yellow squash, about 6 inches long, sliced
2/3 cup bell pepper, chopped
1 1/2 cups fresh cut corn or 1 1/2 cups frozen cut corn
28 ounces tomatoes, crushed (use canned or peeled fresh tomaotes)
2 teaspoons salt, to taste

Steps:

  • In a large heavy pot, brown the ground beef well and drain (I like brown, not gray colored meat. more flavor and eye appealing).
  • Hold the corn until the last 5-10 minutes of cooking.
  • Add remaining ingredients to the beef.
  • Add water to cover about 1/2 inch above ingredients (add more if needed later).
  • Cook until all ingredients are tender.
  • Add corn, cook another 5-10 minutes, adjust salt if needed.
  • Serve with a nice loaf of home made bread for a delightful 1 pot meal.
  • If I'm in a big hurry, I sometimes start the cooking of the squash and peppers in the microwave so they will tenderize quicker once the ingredients are combined.
  • I sometimes serve some form of potato with this to round out the meal a bit.
  • Note: I've tried adding things like onions and mushrooms, but it just isn't true Mulligan Stew and the perfection of the flavor balance is lost so I suggest you stay true to the recipe as given.

A friend gave me this recipe for this hearty comfy stew several years ago and I make it often. It is great on a chilly winter's night. With only a few ingredients, this thick stew is easy and inexpensive. Pairs well with some crusty bread or cornbread. Watch closely at end of cooking time so does not scorch though.

JIMMY'S MULLIGAN STEW



Jimmy's Mulligan Stew image

Mulligan stew is an improvised dish said to have been prepared by American hobos in camps in the early 1900s. "Mulligan" is a stand-in for any Irishman, and mulligan stew is simply an Irish stew that includes meat, potatoes, vegetables, and whatever else can be begged, scavenged, found or stolen. Only a pot and a fire are...

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 to 2 lb beef stew meat (other meats such as ground beef, chicken, or pork may be used)

Steps:

  • 1. Over a medium heat; brown stew meat in olive oil in dutch oven; add chopped onion. Continue cooking until onions are tender. NOTE: Jimmy uses bacon grease in place of olive oil to brown the meat. I missed that step when I started browning the meat.

  • 3. In the last 15 to 20 minutes; add potatoes. Increase heat to medium and cook until potatoes are tender. NOTE: If needed, add additional water to just cover the potatoes. Season with salt, pepper and hot sauce to your taste.

I have not made this stew, but am putting it up here as I seek out "american" and "new york" recipes in honour of the first anniversary of the September 11 tragedy. This recipe is from retired NYC Fire Commissioner John Mulligan.

Provided by Lennie

Categories     Stew

Time 4h20m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 lbs stewing beef, cut in 1 1/2 inch cubes
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
3/4 cup all-purpose flour, divided
2 tablespoons canola oil or 2 tablespoons any vegetable oil (you may need more)
3 large carrots, scraped and cubed
1 cup cubed turnip (peeled)
1 small onion, peeled and sliced into thin rings
4 large potatoes, preferably baking potatoes (peeled and cut into 1/2 inch slices)

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the beef with the salt and pepper and dredge in 1/2 cup of the flour, coating pieces well.
  • Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a large cooking pot.
  • Brown the meat on all sides-- do this in batches-- over medium-high heat; use more oil as needed.
  • Set meat aside once browned.
  • Pour 1/2 cup water into the pot and scrape bottom and sides with a wooden spoon to dislodge all the brown bits.
  • Return meat to pot.
  • Add enough water to cover meat by one inch and bring to a boil; boil for 5 minutes.
  • Reduce heat and simmer meat for two hours; skim away any foam as necessary.
  • After two hours, add carrots, turnips, onion slices and potatoes to stew.
  • Simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 45 minutes; add water if necessary to barely cover the stew.
  • In a bowl or measuring cup, combine the remaining 1/4 cup flour with 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid and whisk to a smooth paste.
  • Whisk or stir into the stew; simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Add salt and/or pepper to taste, and serve.
  • Note: The recipe doesn't call for any herbs or spices, but I would add some fresh herbs along with the vegetables; I would suggest fresh thyme and fresh parsley.

MY MOM'S MULLIGAN STEW



My Mom's Mulligan Stew image

This is so simple and so good. When I grew up and left home I would come back for visits and Mama would have a big pot of this made before I got there. Now that she is in a nursing home, I bring it to her. The seasonings are simple so you may want to adjust or add to your own taste. I always serve this over rice but it is fine on its own as well.

Tips:

  • When choosing beef for stew, look for chuck roast, short ribs, or brisket. These cuts are tough but will become tender when cooked slowly.
  • Brown the beef in a large pot over medium heat before adding the other ingredients. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the meat from becoming dry.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your stew. Common choices include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and turnips. You can also add other vegetables, such as parsnips, rutabagas, or leeks.
  • Season the stew with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste. Common choices include garlic, thyme, rosemary, bay leaves, and paprika.
  • Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until the meat is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
  • Serve the stew hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.

Conclusion:

Mrs. Mulligan's stew is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a delicious and hearty stew that your family and friends will love.
