Red Flannel Stew image

When I was a child, every Saturday night was red flannel night. Grandpa and I wore our red flannel long underwear to supper and Grandma, the cook, dressed in a long calico dress and sunbonnet. We'd eat this stew spooned over fluffy southern-style biscuits. Grandma learned to make the stew from earlier generations of our family. -Kathy Padgett, Diamond City, Arkansas

I've made this stew several times and it's always delicious. I especially love the way the molasses and brown sugar caramelize in the oven.
