**Slumgullion: A Hearty and Versatile One-Pot Meal**

Slumgullion, also known as slumgullion stew, is a hearty and versatile one-pot meal that has been enjoyed for centuries. It is believed to have originated with the cowboys of the American frontier, who would often throw whatever ingredients they had on hand into a pot and let it simmer over the campfire. Today, slumgullion is still a popular dish among campers, hikers, and backpackers, as it is easy to make and can be tailored to suit individual tastes. There are many different recipes for slumgullion, but all of them typically include a combination of meat, vegetables, and spices. Some common ingredients include beef, pork, chicken, sausage, potatoes, carrots, onions, celery, and tomatoes. The stew is typically seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic, and chili powder. In addition to the main course, this article also includes recipes for variations on slumgullion stew, such as a vegetarian version, a spicy version, and a slow-cooker version.

GOULASH



Goulash image

Not to be confused with the Hungarian dish of paprika-spiced stewed meat and vegetables, this American version of goulash, also referred to as "slumgullion," is made with ground beef and pasta. The beef is cooked down with plenty of aromatics and spices and combined with tomatoes, pasta, and cheese to create the perfect comfort meal. We added paprika to the dish in a nod to its Hungarian counterpart.

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound ground beef
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon tomato paste
One 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
One 15-ounce can tomato sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup low-sodium beef broth
8 ounces cavatappi pasta
4 ounces sharp Cheddar, shredded on the large holes of a box grater (about 1 cup), plus more for serving
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add the beef and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until browned and no longer pink, about 8 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of pepper, the paprika, and Italian seasoning to the beef and stir to combine. Cook, stirring, until the paprika begins to toast and become fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir the tomato paste into the beef mixture to coat, then cook until the paste thickens and deepens in color, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, Worcestershire and beef broth to the beef mixture and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to medium low and add the cavatappi. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove the pot from the heat. Gently stir in the parsley and Cheddar until combined and the cheese starts to melt. Divide the goulash among 6 bowls and top with more shredded Cheddar and chopped parsley.

I Googled the name just to make sure it wasn't some crazy word my mom made up...it is a real word for a "watery stew". That is not what this is! My ultimate comfort food from my childhood. I've eaten it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It's a very plain dish that is a good base for any experimentation. My personal add in is the Great Northern white beans (I was trying to cut the beef in 1/2 and add more protein). It is great the next day and freezes and reheats easily.

1/2 teaspoon Accent seasoning (MSG) (optional)
salt
black pepper, freshly ground to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with cold water. Cover and bring water to a boil. Salt the water and cook the macaroni until al dente. Drain and return to large pot. Cover and set aside. You can also do this while you are prepping and preparing the meat.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and add the 2 cloves of smashed garlic to the oil. Saute on medium heat and cook for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the chopped onion and mix to coat with garlic oil. Season the onions with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Saute until soft and transluscent. Remove smashed garlic pieces.
  • Add the ground beef, breaking up any clumps to form small to medium small bits. Season with salt, pepper (and Accent if you are using that seasoning). Brown the meat and drain off any excess liquids.
  • Add meat/onion mixture to the pot of cooked macaroni. Add the 2 cans of diced tomatoes and the 1 can of tomato sauce. Fold in the 1 can of white beans and mix in gently to the macaroni, beef and tomatoes. Taste and adjust any seasoning at this time. Cover and heat through on low-med lo heat for at least 30 min to blend flavors.
  • When reheating leftovers, it the macaroni seems to be absorbing the tomato's liquids add more tomato sauce, tomato juice or one 16 oz of diced tomatoes. I've even used a can of V8 to rehydrate.
