Georgia Brunswick Stew and Hot Flour Tortillas

The Brunswick stew recipe belongs to a very talented smoking friend named Saiko. He was kind enough to share his recipe with fellow smokers and I wanted to give it a try.
I loved it! :)

The original recipe calls for

2 lb. chopped BBQ meat (I used some smoked pork tenderloin)
2 TBSP of your favorite rub (I used HeadCountry)
2 28oz cans whole tomatoes, including the juice ( I used my home canned tomatoes)
2 11oz cans shoepeg corn (I used grilled sweet corn)
1 1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup your favorite BBQ sauce (I used Billy Sim's Hot BBQ sauce)
2 cups water
1 tsp black pepper
2 tsp salt
1/2 to 1 tsp cayenne
1 tsp hot sauce ( I used cholula)
1 stick butter


I cut the recipe in half and made a small pot full...














While the stew simmered on the stove, I made a batch of flour tortillas to go along with it..

I mix 2 cups of flour

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

Mix well then add

1 Tablespoon of lard (or shortening)

Mix well then add

1/2 cup to 3/4 cup of warm water

Mix and form into ball, let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes











Pinch off a piece of dough and roll or hand pat out flat ... into a 6 or 7 inch round....








Fry on a dry griddle a few minutes on each side.....




Store the tortillas in a baggie while cooking the rest. They will stay pliable and tender.....





I love hot tortillas slathered with butter!




Roll up and eat one... I did save some for the stew though. :)

The stew was tasty! Had a nice kick to it from the cayenne, cholupa and hot BBQ sauce. Also had a nice smoked flavor from the pork. I loved it and will be making it again!

Thanks Gene! It was tasty, I like the fact that you can make it as hot or mild as you like. Plus use up leftover smoked meat.
