Рецепт Burgoo
The first time I heard Burgoo was during the early 2000′s from a restaurant in the Philippines named Burgoo, I never knew it was a dish during that time until I Yahoo’d what it means (during that time Google was not yet popular). So after looking at the posts online, I was convinced to make this one at home as the description alone makes me want to have one, badly.
Burgoo for those who does not know is a type of stew or porridge made out of different meats, vegetables and beans. This dish originated in Kentucky and traditionally it is made out of any meats and vegetables available which can be venison, racoon, squirrel, game birds or opossum that’s why sometimes it is called the “road kill soup” . But today beef, pork and chicken is widely used so it will be more palatable but having said that there is no standardised recipe for this dish only popular ingredients that’s why lima beans, corn, okra, and potatoes are widely used.
A very popular dish in Kentucky where it is widely served in festive events, there are even social events in Kentucky where Burgoo is the centre of attention, that event call for each person to bring an ingredient to toss in to the stew pot which makes dish unique every year as ingredients may vary. I guess that’s a unique and great idea like barbecue parties where everyone brings their share. This is a really great dish indeed, lots of flavour, lots of different textures served in one bowl.
