how to bake corn

How to Bake Corn.

Corn is a delicious and nutritious vegetable that can be baked in a variety of ways. To roast ears of corn, start by removing their husks. Smear the ears with butter, wrap them in foil, and place them in the oven. Casseroles are another great way to bake both whole kernel and cream-style corn. For something different, try a roasted corn and pepper salsa. Shuck and roast the corn, then slice the kernels off each ear. Combine the corn with fresh ingredients and serve the salsa with tortilla chips.

Method 1 Roasting Corn on the Cob

Ingredients.
4 ears of corn, 2 tablespoons butter, melted, Serves 4.

Steps.
1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Let your oven heat up while you shuck the corn and prepare it for roasting.

2. Remove the outer leaves of each ear of corn. Each ear of corn is enveloped in light green leaves called the husk. To shuck the husk from the corn, start by peeling off the outer leaves on each ear and discarding them. Stop peeling when only 1 thin layer of inner leaves remains on each cob.

3. Expose the tip of each piece of corn to create a “zipper.” Peel back the remaining inner leaves at the end of each cob until you see a few yellow kernels peeking out. Think of these pulled back leaves as the corn’s "zipper."

The tassels are the silky strings bunched at the end of the cob.

4. Pull the “zipper” down firmly with your dominant hand. Hold the bottom of 1 ear of corn firmly with your non-dominant hand. Grab the zipper and tassels with your dominant hand. Use 1 firm, quick tug to yank down the ear's zipper. Pull the husk all the way down to the bottom of the cob, and keep pulling until the husk is inverted.

This will also expose thin, silky strands on the inside of the husk.

5. Pull the husk off the cob in 1 smooth motion. Keep your dominant hand on the inverted husk. Quickly snap your wrist to pull the husk off the end of the cob. Try to do this in 1 smooth motion. Discard the husk and the silky strands that came with it.

6. Pull off the remaining silky strands with your fingers. Some of the silky strands may cling to the corn kernels after you remove the husk. Use your fingers to pull off any silk still clinking to the cob. Discard the silky strands.

7. Smear about ½ tablespoon of softened butter on each ear of corn. Let the butter soften at room temperature for a few minutes, then use a butter knife to spread about ½ tablespoon of it onto each cob. Be sure to spread the softened butter from the top to the bottom of the ear, then all the way around.

8. Wrap each buttered ear of corn individually in aluminum foil. After smearing on the butter, place the ear of corn on a small sheet of aluminum foil. Fold the foil around the ear so that it’s fully encased. Do this for all 4 cobs, wrapping each one individually in foil.

9. Bake the corn for 20 to 25 minutes. Place each ear of corn onto a baking sheet. Carefully place the baking sheet into the preheated oven.

10. Remove the baking sheet and serve the corn. The foil will be very hot, so let it cool for a few minutes or wear gloves to unwrap each ear of corn. Serve the corn immediately. You can serve it as is, still on the cob, or you can slice the kernels off of each cob and serve it that way.

Method 2 Baking a Corn Casserole.

Ingredients.

1 can or 15 oz (430 g) whole kernel corn, drained, 1 can or 14 oz (400 g) cream-style corn, 1 package or 8 oz (230 g) corn muffin mix.

1 cup (120 g) sour cream, 1/2 stick butter, melted, 1 to 1 1/2 cups (120 to 180 g) shredded cheddar cheese, Serves 6 to 8.

Steps.

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Let your oven heat up while you put the casserole together.

2. Combine the corn, muffin mix, sour cream, and butter in a bowl. Pour both cans of corn and the package of corn muffin mix into a large mixing bowl. Use a spoon to combine them. Add the sour cream and melted butter to the bowl and stir the mixture until completely incorporated.

The mixture will be slightly lumpy.

3. Pour the mixture into a greased 9 in (23 cm) x 13 in (33 cm) dish. Spray your casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray, taking care to coat all sides of it evenly. Transfer the corn mixture from the bowl to the casserole dish.

4. Bake the corn casserole uncovered for 45 minutes. Place the corn casserole into the preheated oven. When the casserole has lightly browned on top, carefully remove the dish from the oven. Place the casserole on a heat-resistant surface.

5. Top the casserole with cheese and bake it for 5 to 10 more minutes. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the entire surface of the corn casserole. Use an oven mitt to place the dish back into the oven. Let it bake at the same temperature for another 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the casserole from the oven when the cheese has completely melted.

6. Let the casserole stand for 5 minutes, then serve. Set the casserole on a heat-resistant surface and let it cool down for about 5 minutes. Use a large spoon to scoop out and plate each serving. Serve the dish warm.

Transfer leftovers to an airtight container and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days.







Method 3 Making Roasted Corn and Pepper Salsa.

Ingredients.

2 poblano peppers, 1 jalapeno.

4 ears corn, husk and silk removed, 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, Sea salt and pepper, to taste, ¼ cup (30 g) fresh cilantro leaves, chopped.

½ cup (60 g) red onion, diced, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, 3 tablespoons lime juice, 1 teaspoon granulated sugar, ½ teaspoon kosher salt.

Serves 6

Steps.

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) and prepare a baking sheet. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spray the foil evenly with nonstick cooking spray.

2. Remove the husks and silk from the 4 ears of corn. Peel off the light green outer leaves. Gently peel back the remaining inner leaves at the end of each cob. Think of these pulled back leaves as the corn’s "zipper." Grab the “zipper” and tassels and pull them off each ear in 1 smooth motion. Snap the leaves off the ends, then pull off any remaining silk from the kernels with your fingers.

3. Cover each ear with 1 tablespoon (14.8 ml) of melted butter and season. Place the shucked corn on the foil-lined baking sheet. Use a butter knife to smear 1 tablespoon (14.8 ml) of melted butter onto each ear. Be sure to spread the butter from the base to the tip of the piece of corn, and then all the way around it. Season each ear with sea salt and pepper.

4. Add the whole peppers to the baking sheet. Rinse the poblanos and jalapeno off with water, then pat them dry. Place the whole peppers onto the baking sheet with the corn. Spray the tops of the peppers with nonstick cooking spray.

Spread the veggies out on the baking sheet so none of them are overlapping.

5. Roast them for 10 minutes, then flip and roast for 10 more minutes. Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven. After roasting for 10 minutes, use tongs to quickly flip over each ear of corn and all of the peppers.

6. Pull out the peppers and continue roasting the corn. Use tongs to flip each piece of corn over again, then remove the roasted peppers from the baking sheet. Close the oven door. Put the peppers in a container with a tight-fitting lid. Let the peppers sit for 15 to 20 minutes while the corn continues to roast.

7. Combine the onions and red wine vinegar in a bowl. Dice the red onion and place it in a medium sized bowl. Pour the red wine vinegar over the onion. Set this aside to marinate for 10 minutes while you finish preparing the salsa.

8. Peel the skin from the roasted peppers and dice them. Remove the peppers from the container. Use a sharp knife to peel off the skin from all of them. Cut into each pepper and remove the ribs and seeds from the inside. Discard these. Dice the peppers and add them to the bowl with the onions and vinegar.

9. Remove the roasted corn and cut the kernels off of each cob. The corn kernels should be lightly browned when you remove them from the oven. Let the ears cool for a few minutes so that you can handle them. Use a sharp knife to slice the kernels off of each piece.

10. Add the corn and cilantro to the bowl with the other ingredients. Chop the fresh cilantro. Place the roasted corn kernels and the fresh cilantro into the bowl with the onions and vinegar. Add the remaining seasonings to the bowl, then stir well to combine the mixture.

11. Cover the salsa and refrigerate it for 30 minutes. Use plastic wrap or a tight-fitting lid to cover the bowl of salsa. Put the bowl into your fridge and let the flavors develop for about 30 minutes. Pull out the salsa and taste it. Adjust the salt to taste, if needed. Serve the roasted corn salsa with your favorite tortilla chips.

how to making gizzard and pepper kebabs

How to Making Gizzard and Pepper Kebabs.

You've probably had stewed or boiled gizzards, but they're also great on the grill. Marinate clean chicken gizzards with a sweet and sour sauce or a gingery spiced sauce. Then thread the gizzards onto soaked skewers along with peppers, if you're using them. To make Filipino grilled gizzards, you'll also need to simmer them in spices and brush the kebabs with hot sauce while they're on the grill.



Ingredients.

Gizzard and Pepper Kebabs

1 1⁄4 pounds (570 g) chicken gizzards

1⁄2 cup (120 ml) oil

1 garlic clove, sliced

1⁄2 cup (120 ml) Worcestershire sauce

4 tablespoons (50 g) dark brown sugar

1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) vinegar

1 cup (225 g) tomato sauce

2 yellow peppers

2 red peppers

Makes 14 to 16 kebabs





Combine the oil, garlic, sauce, sugar, vinegar, and tomato sauce. Pour 1⁄2 cup (120 ml) of oil into a large bowl along with 1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) of vinegar and 1 cup (225 g) of tomato sauce. Stir in 1 sliced garlic clove, 1⁄2 cup (120 ml) of Worcestershire sauce and 4 tablespoons (50 g) of dark brown sugar until the marinade is combined.

You can use olive, coconut, or vegetable oil.

Try using white or apple cider vinegar for the marinade.



Clean 1 1⁄4 pounds (570 g) of chicken gizzards. Rinse any blood or debris off of the gizzards and set them on a cutting board. Cut each gizzard in half lengthwise and then rinse out the centers to remove debris. Pull away and discard the tough yellow lining from each gizzard.

You'll need to use your fingers to rub the debris free from the gizzards as you rinse.



Stir in the gizzards and refrigerate them for 45 to 60 minutes. Put the cleaned gizzards into the bowl with the marinade. Stir to coat them with the mixture and then cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Refrigerate the gizzards in the marinade so they soften and become flavorful.



Soak the skewers in water for at least 15 minutes. Place 14 to 15 bamboo or wooden skewers into a long shallow dish. Cover the skewers with water and leave them to soak at room temperature while you prepare the peppers and the grill.

Soaking the skewers will ensure they don't burn when you put them on the grill.



Chop 4 bell peppers. Rinse 2 yellow and 2 red peppers. Trim the stems and discard the seeds from the center of each pepper. Then use a sharp knife to cut each pepper into 2 in (5 cm) chunks.

If you prefer, you can also use orange or green bell peppers.



Heat a gas or charcoal grill to high. Turn a gas grill to high or fill a chimney with briquettes. Light the briquettes and dump them in the center of the grill once they're hot and ashy.



Thread the gizzards and peppers on the skewers. Remove the gizzards from the marinade and drain the water from the skewers. Slide 1 gizzard onto the skewer and then thread 1 to 2 pieces of pepper. Continue to alternate threading gizzards with peppers.

You should be able to make 14 to 16 kebabs.



Put the kebabs on the grill and brush them with the marinade. Arrange the kebabs on the hot grill and use a basting brush to coat them with the marinade.

Keep the lid off of the grill so you can turn the kebabs frequently.



Grill the kebabs for 12 to 15 minutes. Set a timer for 12 to 15 minutes and turn the kebabs every few minutes so the gizzards cook evenly. The gizzards should look slightly crisp around the edges and the peppers will char.

To ensure the gizzards have finished cooking, insert an instant-read meat thermometer. They should reach 165 °F (74 °C).



Remove and serve the gizzard kebabs. Use tongs to transfer the kebabs to a serving platter. Consider serving them with boiled or grilled sweet corn and salad.

Refrigerate the leftover gizzard kebabs in an airtight container for up to 3 to 4 days.

Big Steak Omelette | GIANT OMELET.

Big Steak Omelette | GIANT OMELET.

How do you spell omelette anyway? I’ve seen it that way and also as omelet. It confuses the heck out of me and makes me wonder if I’ve been doing it wrong this whole time.
Omelette or omelet, this eggylicious creation is not mine, much as I’d like to take credit for it. No, this one is from IHOP. It came to my attention when Mr. Cooking Jar ordered it: a gigantic omelette stuffed silly with steak, mushrooms and whole lot of other things came to our table and he proceeded to inhale it in less than 5 minutes.
My first thought was ‘Wow, that’s a LOT of food’. And then I saw how quickly it disappeared. So let’s just say this recipe is for one to two servings. Just in case you have a hungry human beast to feed as well or are a hungry human beast.

Incase you missed my descriptors, this thing is humongous. It’s stuffed till kingdom come with steak, mushrooms, green bell peppers, tomatoes, hash browns and cheese. And then it is topped with more of those fillings. As if what’s inside it isn’t enough. It’s called Big Steak Omelette for a reason.
It’s for the meat eaters. The carnivores of the world. And it pretty much falls under the category of man food. Protein and more protein inside some protein and topped with MORE protein. The veggies are just there as a side show.
I’ll put this under breakfast but it’s filling enough to be dinner as well. Seems I’m on an egg roll with breakfast recipes. First with Idaho Sunrise, then with hash brown egg nests and finally this. I foresee more eggs in the future.

Good times. Back to the recipe, there’s a lot of sauteing for stuff like the mushrooms and hash browns. The steak is grilled then cut into medium thick slices. Go big or go home.
Make the omelette, top it with stuffing and cook until the cheese has melted. IHOP tends to roll their omelette into a burrito shape but mine was too overstuffed to do that. Oops! Serve with a side of salsa, if you want. That’s about it. Simple ingredients but big results.

Let’s get started.

INGREDIENTS.
4 eggs, beaten.
Salt and pepper to taste.
1/2 lb. flank steak.
1/2 tablespoon butter.
1 cup hash browns, shredded.
1/8 teaspoon cayenne.
1/2 teaspoon paprika.
1/4 green pepper, diced.
1/4 sweet onion, diced.
4 oz. Portobello mushrooms, sliced.
1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded.
1 plum tomato, diced.

INSTRUCTIONS.
Season the flank steak and grill until medium. .Let it cool and cut into thick slices.
Over medium high heat, melt butter and add shredded hash browns.
Season hash browns with salt, pepper, cayenne and paprika. Stir until the hash browns are cooked, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, saute mushrooms until they cook down, about 2 minutes Remove and set aside.
Season the egg with salt and pepper to taste and mix with diced green peppers and sweet onions.
Over medium heat, grease a skillet and pour in the egg mixture.
Cook until the bottom and edges are solid.
Add 2/3 of the steak, hash browns, 2/3 of the mushrooms, 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese and 2/3 the tomatoes to one side of the omelette.
Fold the omelette and continue cooking until the cheese melts.
Dish and top with leftover steak, mushrooms and tomatoes.

how to easy make hush puppies

How to Make Hush Puppies.

Hush puppies are an easy and delicious fried treat. Originating in the American South, they are a wonderful accompaniment to most meals, specifically seafood. Originally, legend states that southern fisherman used to cook hush puppies to feed their barking dogs, giving the treat its distinctive name.







Ingredients Rich Southern Hush Puppies.

2 cups (300g) corn meal.

1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour..

1 teaspoon (3g) baking powder

1/2 teaspoon (1.5g) baking soda.

1 1/2 (8.5g) teaspoons salt.

1 tablespoon (12.6) sugar.

1/2 large onion, diced.

1/2 cup (120ml) buttermilk.

3/4 cup (180ml) water..

1/2 cup (4oz) butter, melted

1 egg.







Method 1 Making Classic Hush Puppies.





Preheat a deep fryer to 365 °F (185 °C) or heat up 2 cups oil over medium-high heat. The most common oil used is peanut, but vegetable, sunflower, or canola oil will do as well. As the oil warms to its appropriate heat, start mixing up ingredients.

If you don't have a deep fryer, don't worry. You can use a piece of bread to check your oil's temperature as well.



Sift the dry ingredients -- flour, cornmeal, salt, sugar, baking soda and powder -- together. Use a fork or whisk to make sure everything is evenly mixed in.



Finely dice your large onion and add it to the dry ingredients. To dice an onion, cut it in half from end to end and peel off the skin. Cut off the tops -- the long, spindly end -- from each half. Then make long, vertical slices, following the onion's long, visible lines. Finally, cut horizontally across these long cuts to get small squares.

For even smaller pieces, stand the onion up on its end and cut each part in half once more before cutting your squares.



Melt the butter in the microwave in 30-second bursts, then stir it into the buttermilk. Put the butter in the microwave for 30 seconds. If it's not totally melted, add 10 seconds at a time until it has just turned liquid -- it doesn't need to be hot. In a separate bowl, mix this butter into the buttermilk.



Whisk the egg and water into the buttermilk. You want all of your wet ingredients to be together, well mixed, in this separate bowl. It can help to whisk the egg ahead of time so that it is already scrambled.



Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Pour your bowl of buttermilk mixture straight into the flours, salt, and sugar.



Mix until combined, without any chunks. You want a batter that is thicker than pancakes, but not so thick that it can't be stirred easily. Once it is all mixed in, stop -- you don't want to over stir. Use a rubber spatula for the best results.

If the batter is very wet and runny, add 1-2 more tablespoons of corn meal.

If the batter is thick and difficult to stir, add 1-2 more tablespoons of milk.



Test the heat of the frying oil, aiming for 365F/185C. A candy or frying thermometer is easiest, but it is far from your only option. Cut a 1-inch (2.5cm) piece of bread and drop it into the hot oil. If it is completely browned within 60 seconds, your oil is hot enough to fry with.

If the bread browns faster than 60 seconds, turn the heat down.

A kernel of popcorn will not pop until it's reached the right temperature, and can be used as another test subject when dropped in oil.



Drop 6-7 pieces of batter into the hot oil using a metal spoon. A normal spoon should have the right amount of batter. Dip it in cold water to prevent the dough from sticking, then scoop a roughly 1" (2.5cm) piece of dough into the hot oil.

Only cook 6-7 pieces at once to prevent cooling the oil with too much cold batter. If the oil gets too cold the puppies will take longer to cook and will come out greasy.



Turn puppies after one minute to ensure that they cook completely. Hush puppies will sometimes flip themselves, but if not you can use a slotted spoon to turn them over. This ensures all sides cook evenly.



Fry until golden on all sides. If they look nice and golden all over, they are ready to remove. While the exact time will depend on the size of the hush puppy and oil's heat, they shouldn't take longer than 2-3 minutes.



Rest finished hush puppies on a plate of paper towels to drain. This removes some of the excess oil from the surface, which helps the outsides cool into a crisp, delicious exterior. Enjoy!









Method 2 Making Recipe Variations.



Ingredients Simple and Easy Hush Puppies.

1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour.

1 cup + 2 tablespoons (175g) self-rising cornmeal.

1/2 cup (100g) white sugar.

2 eggs, beaten.

1 large onion, finely diced.

1/2 cup (120ml) milk or buttermilk.

1 teaspoon (2.8g) salt.



Simplify your liquids to just milk and two eggs for a denser, easier hush puppy. This recipe is much quicker and leads to a heavier treat than the light, airy puppies shown above. To make, simply mix the wet and dry ingredients separately, combine, and then cook as shown above:

Wet ingredients

2 eggs, beaten

1/2 cup milk or buttermilk

Dry ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup + 2 tablespoons self-rising cornmeal

1/2 cup white sugar

1 large onion, finely diced

1 teaspoon salt[8]



Consider a denser, all cornmeal variation. Instead of using a mixture of flour and cornmeal, get a more classic flavor by just using 2 cups of cornmeal. Use 2 eggs instead of 1 to help it hold together better.



Add a shredded green bell pepper for a Cajun/Creole twist. Green bell peppers are at the heart of Louisiana cooking, and some Cajun chefs can't do without them. To make them, use a mandolin or sharp knife to cut fine, small strips of pepper and add with the onion.



Throw in 8 ounces of fresh crab meat for crab cake hush puppies. To make them, mix the pulled and shredded crab meat into the buttermilk before adding to the dry ingredients. Cut the amount of all-purpose flour in half and cook like normal.

One cup of chopped raw shrimp can also be used for a seafood kick.

This recipe also goes well with the green bell pepper variation mentioned above.



Substitute a half can of beer for the buttermilk for a tangier, lighter treat. Sometimes called Mississippi hush puppies, this is the same concept as a beer-battered fish or fry. The also go well with a chopped jalapeno pepper. The rest of the cooking is just like normal.

This should be roughly 3/4 cup (180ml) beer.



Bake the hush puppies in a muffin tin at 450F/230C for 10 minutes for a low-fat option. Want delicious hush puppies without frying? You can fill a muffin tin with your batter instead of frying to get delicious, puffy hush puppies anytime. Just add 1 tablespoon (15ml) vegetable oil to the batter and stir in to help them cook.

Use cooking spray, oil, or butter to lightly grease the muffin tin.



Finished.





Tips.

In humid weather, expect to add 1-2 tablespoons more corn meal. In drier climates, you should prepare for a touch more milk.



Warnings.

Use care when cooking with a deep fat fryer -- hot oil is very dangerous.



Things You'll Need.

Mixing bowls.

Measuring cups and spoons.

Mixing spoon.

Deep fat fryer.

how to make kentucky burgoo

How to Make Kentucky Burgoo.

Kentucky burgoo is a traditional Kentucky stew made from various types of meat, vegetables, and chicken and beef stock. Making Kentucky burgoo is a long process but it will yield a delicious meal. To cook Kentucky burgoo, you need to brown the meat and then add the other ingredients. Kentucky burgoo can make a great dish for a holiday or other special event.





Ingredients.

3 tablespoons (45 mL) vegetable oil.

3-4 pounds (about 1,350 grams) of pork shoulder or country ribs cut into cubes.

2-3 pounds (about 1,350 grams) chuck roast, stew meat, or other cut of beef, cut into cubes.

3-5 chicken legs or thighs with the bones in.

1 chopped green pepper.

1 large chopped onion.

2 chopped carrots.

2 chopped celery ribs.

5 chopped garlic cloves.

1 quart (950 mL) chicken stock or broth.

1 quart (950 mL) beef stock or broth.

A 28-ounce (784 grams) can of crushed tomatoes.

2 large potatoes.

One pound (450 grams) bag of frozen corn.

A 14-ounce (392 grams) bag of frozen lima beans.

Salt and pepper.

4-8 tablespoons (60 to 120 mL) of Worcestershire sauce.





Part 1 Cooking the Meat.



1. Heat your oil. Measure your oil into a soup pot. Heat the oil over the stove on medium-high heat. To see if your oil is ready, drop something small like a grain of rice in the pan. If it sizzles, the oil is ready.



2. Salt the meats. While you wait for the oil to heat up, salt all your meats. This includes the pork shoulder or ribs, chuck roast or stew meat, and any other meat you're including. Salt all the meat generously on all sides.

Wash your hands before and after handling raw meat.



3. Add the meats to the pot. Once the oil is ready and the meats are salted, place the meats in the pot. Add the different types of meat at once. As you're working with a lot of meat, you'll likely have to work in batches. Make sure you can still easily move and flip the meat after adding it to the pan. Overcrowding will prevent the meat from browning properly.



4. Brown the meats on both sides. Use a wooden spoon to turn the meats over to make sure they're brown on both sides. Move the meats as necessary to get them completely brown on each side. Do not flip your meat over until the side touching the pan is completely brown.



5. Remove the meats and set aside. Once the meats are browned, remove them using a spatula or slotted spoon. Place the meats in a bowl and set them aside for now.





Part 2 Simmering the Soup.



1. Cook the onions, pepper, celery, and carrots. Add your onions, peppers, celery, and carrots to the same pot you used to brown the meat. Turn the heat to high. Cook the vegetables until they're browned.

You may need to add more oil if the vegetables start to steam or get stuck to the pan.

Cooking times vary depending on the precise heat of your stove and type of pot you're using.



2. Add the garlic. As soon as your vegetables brown, throw in the garlic. Cook the garlic for only one minute before proceeding with the cooking process.



3. Add back the meats. Take the bowl with the meats that you set aside earlier. Add the meats back to the pot with the vegetables and garlic.



4. Stir in broth and tomatoes. Once the meat is back in the pot, add both the chicken and beef broth. Then, add the can of crushed tomatoes. Stir all the ingredients until they're completely combined and then salt to taste.



5. Simmer for two hours. Let the mixture come to a simmer. Then, reduce the heat on the stove to a lower setting. Cover the pot and leave the ingredients simmering for two hours.

Check the pot periodically while it's simmering and do not leave the pot unattended. This is a fire hazard.



Part 3 Finishing the Burgoo.



1. Strip the meat from the bones. Use a spoon to fish out any pieces of meat that are attached to a bone. Strip the meat from the bones. Tear any larger chunks of meat into bite sized pieces and then throw them back in the pot.

Wait a few minutes between taking the meat out of the pot and removing it from the bone. Meat will be very hot when it's just been taken out of the pot.



2. Add the potatoes. If you have not already peeled and cut your potatoes, do so now. Then, toss the potatoes into the pot. Use a spoon to stir them into the remaining ingredients.



3. Stir in the worcester sauce. Measure out your 4-8 tablespoons (60 to 120 mL) of Worcestershire sauce and pour it into your mixture. Then, stir it into the soup until everything is combined.



4. Add the corn and lima beans. Add your one pound (450 grams) bag of frozen corn and 14-ounce (392 grams) bag of frozen lima beans Stir everything together until the ingredients are evenly combined.



5. Finish cooking your soup. After adding the corn and lima beans, let the soup cook for another 10 minutes. After 10 minutes have passed, you can serve your soup. Kentucky burgoo is traditionally served with hot sauce and corn bread on the side.
