. A high school friend of mine's grandmother made a big 'ol batch of Brunswick stew in an old cast iron wash pot over an open fire every year as soon as the weather turned chilly. Man I'd love to have a couple of bowls of that again. .
That's pretty close to the Chicken Mull corridor, do y'all have that in Good Hope?Good Hope Gen. store is the best I've found in these parts. Keep a few quarts in the freezer at all times!
I gotta try that Good Hope store.
Growing up, always had Brunswick stew over bread. Haven't done that in years, but this tread has made me thinking about it.
Here in Jefferson there's a little place called Iron Pig BBQ, and there stew is just about how I like it. Not thick and chunky, a little thinner than the pictures of the Good Hope stew. I may go buy some of that when I get home. Have plenty of pulled pork in the freeze to go with it.
Me too.
And if it's made right, it's a main course, not a side.
I prefer the little oyster crackers if I remember to get them. They stay together a little better.
And... If I do bread, I toast it to about blonde. That's pretty good too.
Eaten a lot around tobacco barns during hanging time.Hmmmm, I've never heard of that though I'm originally from North Carolina. Sounds tasty though, I'd give it a try.
It is, you just need to add the dough balls in the pot.i grew up north of raleigh on the state line and never heard of it either growing up until a few years ago....sounds like it would be delicious, almost like chicken and dumplins'......
Chicken mull was the first (solid) food any of our children ate. Then they had buttered biscuit soked in coffee.Interesting that I'm hearing y'all have it in West Georgia, I wasn't aware of that.
Never knew they used turtle until I read that link. Other, nearly identical variations of a "mull" can be made using either catfish, oysters or canned salmon, instead of chicken.
When I was growing up my Mom made a version using canned salmon. It was more mushy than soupy. I didn't care for it.
I'd probably like the chicken or even turtle better than salmon.
My mother cooked it because she could feed a family of 7 on one chicken and some crackers. I don't think any well off families had to eat it.Well bud I haven't had it over here. I grew up in Putnam Co and spent a lot of time between there and Athens. Definitely seems to be a 441 corridor thing in Ga
The church in Bethlehem has a big chicken mull cooking yearly. They make it two different ways. I get both.That's pretty close to the Chicken Mull corridor, do y'all have that in Good Hope?
I'll never forget fishing when I was young. Parents were broke and I didn't even know it. Mama caught a huge turtle and was so thrilled. We ate turtle mull a few days. Don't know if I'd eat it now, but then it was good.Chicken mull was the first (solid) food any of our children ate. Then they had buttered biscuit soked in coffee.

Interesting - I worked in the tobacco fields of Alamance and Caswell counties in high school. Maybe I just don't remember it - I am advanced in years now...lolEaten a lot around tobacco barns during hanging time.
