Steps:
- Boil the potatoes covered in water, remove, peel and chop or slice. I use red potatoes because they hold up well in a recipe.

HOBO STEW
My dad use to make this dish when I was growing up and I just loved it. Of course his was a little different from mine but just as good. He would refer to it as Rainbow Stew also. Every time I make it I am reminded of him and remember all the times watching him cook growing up. It is called Hobo Stew because you can add anything you can get your hands on to it and it tastes great. It is very pantry friendly since you can pretty much use what you have vegetable wise (or what you like.) You can also add different meats. I have made it with ground longhorn, turkey, and deer. I have also used chunks of meat rather than ground. It is a great way to used up meat you have stashed in the freezer but can't think of what to cook with it (or just not enough of it the meat for it to stand-alone.) Tonight I actually used some cubed steaks I had in the freezer. I just chopped them up. If you use actual chunks of meat I would cut them into 1-inch chunks, brown in the oil before adding the vegetables. You can also play around with the herbs, adding combos you like or fresh herbs you have on hand. I just happened to have some fresh greek oregano my mother-in-law gave me . Just have fun and play around with it. The recipe is very versatile and makes a large pot of food. It is budget friendly too since you can use what is on sale.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add in the onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until the onion is translucent.
- Add the meat and cook until no longer pink. Toss in the tomato paste and cook for roughly two minutes. The color of the paste will deepen. Put in the garlic and cook 30 seconds, until garlic is fragrant.
- Add the flour and stir to coat the meat and vegetables. Allow to cook for 2 or 3 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste.
- Stir in the tomatoes with their juices. Add both kinds of broth, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, and then carefully place your potatoes inches Stir in the rest of the vegetables (green beans, hominy, and black-eyes peas.).
- Bring to a boil, then cover, reduce heat and simmer hard (or low boil) until the potatoes are done (you will be able to easily slide a fork in.) It could take up to an hour depending on how small you cut the potatoes. Stir occasionally.
- When potatoes are done remove the bay leaves, stir in the oregano, and salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:
- Brown the meat in the oil in a dutch oven. Add everything else.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer and cook until everything is cooked through.
- Alternatively, this can be cooked in a crockpot after the meat has been browned. Add a little water to the pan and deglaze if using this method. (When I cooked my stew, I used this method. I did not add the beef broth, however. I just added 3 tsp of instant beef broth seasoning.) Cook about 6 to 7 hrs on low.
- Serve with hot biscuits or cornbread.

Tips:

- Enhance the stew with liquids: Incorporate a combination of liquids like broth, red wine, or beer to add depth and complexity to the stew.
- Include hearty vegetables: Add a variety of chopped vegetables like carrots, potatoes, celery, and root vegetables for a nutritious and flavorful stew.

- Season wisely: Adjust the seasoning as needed, balancing salt, pepper, herbs, and spices to create a harmonious flavor profile.
- Serve with accompaniments: Elevate the stew by serving it with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or a refreshing salad to complete the meal.
