Martha Ann has always been a fantastic cook. The family always depended on her for many delicious dishes. Brunswick Stew was no exception. She actually had the recipe published in a local cookbook in memory of our mother, Cleazel Barkley.
Martha, Orby (our brother) and I made this recently, and I have included some pictures of our day. Brunswick Stew is a process that can take several hours from start to finish. Martha is peeling potatoes while Orby is combining the meat with the other ingredients. We had two big pots of stew. Enough to divide between the three families.
