Sausage Stew

A camping recipe from David. This is a simple one-pot dish that uses your favorite sausage and vegetables. There's no right or wrong way to make this stew. You can make it in a big pot on your camp stove, you could prepare it in a Dutch oven over charcoal, or you could use a foil baking pan by the campfire. If there are any veggies that you prefer, just add them to the mix. For added flavor, try using 2 or 3 different sausages together.

Prep Time: 1 hours

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds of your favorite sausage
• 1 large onion
• 1 green pepper
• 2 stalks celery
• 2 or 3 medium potatoes
• optional: asparagus, brocolli, cauliflower, cabbage, carrots, corn, green beans, tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons oil or butter
• 1 can beef broth
• salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation:

Slice sausage (Italian, Kielbasa, smoked) into 1/4 inch slices. Dice onion, pepper, celery, and potatoes. Melt butter over medium heat and add ingredients. Cook and stir until sausage browns slightly and onions become transparent. Add beef broth and 2 cups of water. Bring to a simmer. Now is when you can add any optional vegetables. Chop in chunks and add to the pot. Cover and simmer for about 45 minutes. Stir every 5 or 10 minutes.
