Do’s and Don’ts
DO:
- Use a mix of meats for that classic cowboy heartiness.
- Cook the stew long enough for the potatoes to be fork-tender.
- Experiment with other beans or veggies if you’re feeling creative.
DON’T:
- Skip seasoning—this stew needs bold flavors to match its name.
- Overcrowd the pot. If it’s too thick, add more broth for a proper stew consistency.
- Serve it without toppings—cowboys didn’t ride all day for plain stew.
This Texas Cowboy Stew is warm, filling, and unapologetically hearty—perfect for feeding a hungry crowd or saving for leftovers. Pair it with cornbread and saddle up for a true Lone Star feast. 🤠🍲
