Great Depression Pork Stew Recipes

GREAT DEPRESSION PORK STEW

Great Depression Pork Stew image

A hearty, filling stew invented by my mother during the "Great Depression" to keep her growing boys happy. She only needed two pork chops to feed six people. Hot biscuits are almost required as the side for this stew. Good anytime of the year, especially when unexpected dinner time guests show up.

Categories Stew

Time 1h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 -3 large pork chops
4 large white potatoes
2 large yellow onions
6 stalks celery, include leaves
1/2 gallon water
1/4 cup flour
salt and pepper
2 chicken bouillon cubes

Steps:

Boil pork until it falls from the bone. Cut into small bite sized pieces ( fat as well ) and return to pot with some salt and pepper and keep on slow simmer.
Peel and cut potatoes into bite size chunks.
Roughly dice the onion and celery. Add all vegetables and boulion cubes to the pot and bring to a boil. Simmer low until vegetables are done. Thicken with a mix of flour and cold water. Taste for salt or pepper.
The stew is white with some green so you might want to add a chopped carrot for color.
Serve in deep soup bowls with biscuits on the side. Some may want to add ketchup to their bowl of stew. This is OK - I do it.
You may substitute and inexpensive cut of pork for this recipe.

37 RECIPES FROM THE GREAT DEPRESSION FOR A FILLING MEAL

From cottageatthecrossroads.com

Meatloaf. If you've lived in the States long enough, you've probably had meatloaf with a side of mashed potatoes and vegetables. While the name sounds pretty unappetizing, this seasoned loaf of meat is actually quite delicious and is highly versatile (basically, you can throw anything you have on hand inside of it).
Chili. A popular dish that fed a family in the Great Depression was one that is still familiar today: chili. Yes, this thick, tomato-based soup was quite the hearty meal as it capitalized on beans, which were both cheap and filling.
Macaroni and Cheese. Yet another dish that can be made in bulk, macaroni and cheese, is a holiday staple in American cuisine. Commonly made on Thanksgiving and Christmas, this luxuriously decadent food has well surpassed its popularity in the early 1900s.
Chipped Beef and Toast. Still served in diners across the US, chipped beef and toast are somewhat of an underrated breakfast/dinner option. Like every other recipe on this list, the ingredients are inexpensive, and it'll fill you up for pretty much the whole day (plus, it tastes pretty good too).
Peanut Butter and Pickle Sandwich. Unlike the previous entries on this list, the peanut butter and pickle sandwich SOUNDS like it came from the Great Depression.
