Ingredients

Stew

  • 1 yellow onion
  • 2 carrots
  • 2 stalks celery
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 12 oz baby potatoes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tsp dried thyme
  • 2 tsp mustard powder
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 14 oz can diced tomatoes
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp packed brown sugar
  • 2 cups pulled pork
  • 2 cups chicken thighs shredded, cooked
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1 cup frozen lima beans
  • 1 cup Carolina-style barbecue sauce recipe below

Sauce

  • 1 cup yellow mustard
  • ½ cup sugar
  • cup brown sugar we used a Splenda brown sugar mix
  • ¾ cup cider vinegar
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tsp white pepper
  • 2 tbsp chili powder
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp liquid smoke

Instructions

  • First we shall make the sauce. Put all the sauce ingredients besides the final 3 in a saucepan over a low cooking fire or stove. Simmer for 20 minutes stirring every now and then.
  • Add the final ingredients and continue to simmer and stir for 10 more minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Now for the stew. Chop up the onion, carrots, celery, garlic, and potatoes. In a large pot over a medium-high cooking fire or stove, add the olive oil and butter and heat until the butter melts. Add the chopped veggies and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add the thyme, mustard powder, salt, pepper, and tomatoes. Cook for 3 minutes.
  • Add the chicken broth and heat to a bowl, then simmer over low heat for 15 minutes.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients besides the sauce and heat over medium, simmering for 20 minutes.
  • Add the barbecue sauce and simmer for 15 more minutes or the desired thickness is achieved.
  • Serve with a hearty basket of bread to hungry adventurers!

Notes

This is such a unique change to the typical meaty stew formula. The mustard-based barbecue sauce adds a slightly bitter sweetness to the otherwise savory explosion. Wereboar are definitely tricky to take down, so if you need to source a different meat feel free to use chicken thighs and pork. This stew is heavy, hearty, and filling, easily granting a +1 Constitution mod to any Dungeons and Dragons adventurer who can finish a bowl!
