Gunnar is the king of soups and stews!

I'd have to go to the house to get the hard copy of the post from last week to remember the name, but I made Gunnar's South American sausage, chicken and collards stew. Wow! That was the perfect stuff for a night where the temperature dropped 35+ degrees in a couple hours and the sleet was pounding on the roof.

That's the third soup/stew recipe that he's posted in a matter of weeks that has turned out to be a big hit at our house.

Though I made it on the stove top, the Egg had a big influence. I used some buckboard bacon trimmings and the chicken was some leftover from a spatchcocked bird we had Saturday.

Keep 'em coming, Gunnar!

Whew Thanks. It was Chicken Feijoada and I still think it should have been Sausage Feijoda. I see recipes all of the time I want to try, this one surprised me too in the overall flavor.

Sounds like it would fit right in here. Could you post the recipe oh Soup King?

Please.

Bacon, sausage & chicken....how can you lose?

I must of clacked when I shoulda clicked. I wrote a reply a couple hours ago, but it didn't make it.

I agree that the sausage is the star of the show, but the bacon, greens and beans make a great supporting cast! I used andouille from a small local pork processor. He's got the heat right where I like it, but it surprises me he doesn't dial it back for the masses.

I understand opting for spinach if you've got it sitting in the fridge, but since I had to shop any way, we went with collard greens. Man, they were great with the rice and bean base.

I'm thinking of doing a butt sometime this week, not for the pulled pork, but for the leftovers to make the pork and chicken stew you posted a few weeks ago. It's been at least three weeks since I made that, and the wife still talks about it.

Keep it up, Gunnar, you're on a roll!
