We’re in a Stew at Briden Farm

Stew At Briden Farm

Perhaps we should say, we’re having a stew at Briden Farm, or we had a stew at Briden Farm, but saying, “We’re in a Stew at Briden Farm” is far more interesting! Right? 

Anyway, we did recently have an excellent Stew when we used the juice left over in the frying pan from when we had Smothered Steak, Rice, and Stewed Onions.we took the juice, poured it in a crock pot, added the stew meat, and topped with cut up carrots and potatoes that we grew in our garden. It turned out very good as is evidenced here in the photo. Probably, due at least in part, du to the Watkins Herbs & Spices we used.

Smothered Steak, Rice, and Stewed Onions

Part of the fun at the farm is in the food we eat, it often comes from our farm, or garden, or one nearby and often has been harvested by us, or with friends, and isn’t that what fun is really all about!?

Recently we made, Fried Potatoes, Wild Field Mushrooms, and Steaks, and wrote about that, and now here we are showing off our Smothered Steak, Rice, and Stewed Onions! 

To make it we started with a frying pan on our wood stove and sprayed it with Cooking Spray, from Watkins, so it wouldn’t stick. Then we added the steak, and cut up onions over it, and added in a little water and a couple tablespoons of Watkins Chicken Soup and Gravy mix! Then simmered it, covered, till done.

Home Fried Potatoes, Wild Field Mushrooms, and Steaks

it’s so nice when we reap the bounty of our hard work. The Potatoes are those we grew in Clementsport before moving here to start Briden Farm. The Wild Field Mushrooms were gathered by a friend and I this summer on his Farm. The Steak was from a Bull that attacked a friend on his farm, where I helped out this summer. Of course the whole thing was made using Watkins Products! Things like Watkins Pepper, Garlic Powder, Sea Salt, and other herbs and spices also from Watkins. We love their products.
