Note: Origins of the Kentucky stew, burgoo, are unknown
but the word is generally attributed to Gus Jaubert
who rode with General John Hunt Morgan during the Civil
War. Ingredients and proportions of the meat and vegetable
dish are as varied as the cooks who make it, but all
agree that cooking it in kettles over open fires yields
best results. |
