Now this is a stew you can really sink your teeth into! I met Mr. William Jackson when I visited family recently in Paris, Texas. He told me that his mama used to make this stew when he was growing up. She used beef chunks, but through the years he found that everyone liked pork better. Everyone in his family has this recipe and they never get tired of gathering together to consume this hearty and deliciously satisfying stew. You'll be going back for seconds and thirds. Thanks for sharing your mother's wonderful stew with me and my JAP friends Mr. Jackson.
