I helped document my grandmother's famous Brunswick Stew recipe ages ago. She started with a whole fresh ham and a large hen. I forget how many quarts she would put up, but she always had some to send home with visitors. It was best over rice.
My grandparents did a Brunswick stew every year in the fall, it was a fun time growing up. They would make it for anyone who wanted to come eat in the community/church/family, I remember many times people just stopping on the country road and us serving them. Their stew had chicken and beef, but there was never a recipe until a family friend came to it and wrote down everything as it went into the pot. My uncle has the pot now and is trying to carry on the tradition.
