Classic Mulligan Stew
This hearty stew will warm you up from the inside-out!

When the temperature outside begins to drop, we start reaching for hearty recipes that warm our families from the inside out—and this mulligan stew is our go-to. Mulligan stew is traditionally known as a way to use up leftover meats and vegetables in the fridge, but we like to serve this stew with crunchy peppers and cubed beef brisket. Trust us; it’s a hit every time it hits the dinner table.

You can prepare this in fewer than two hours on the stove top, or you can use a slow cooker on low to let it cook all day. Be sure to make enough of this filling, hearty stew for leftovers the next day!
