neck bone stew
The only way I ever heard of cooking neck bones was to use them as seasoning. That's how my Mother used them,cooking black eye peas,beans,etc. Today the store had neck bones on sale for .99 p/lb and were very meaty,usually when I see them,they're mostly bones. So I decided to buy some and see what other recipes were out there.I saw several recipes on UTUBE for neck bones and gravy,I watched a few videos and saw some that really looked good,so I'm combining 2 recipes in particular and making my own recipe. I've tasted them already and I say they're "family approved"

How To Make neck bone stew
-
1Wash neck bones,Season with salt,pepper,garlic powder and onion powder. Place in a pot and cover with broth or water. ( I used unsalted homemade chicken broth) Cover,cook on medium heat about 2 hours,until meat is almost tender. In a skillet,make gravy,using the broth the neck bones are cooking in to make the gravy.Uncover the pot,add gravy,onion,carrots garlic and potatoes to the neck bones,continue cooking until vegetables are tender and gravy is slightly thickened. If gravy is too thick,add additional broth or water. If not thick enough,make a slurry by combining 1 Tablespoon butter with 1 T flour well combined,stir a little into pot at a time until as thick as you like.Check for seasoning.
