Old Style Kentucky Derby Burgoo: Easy with VitaClay!

Old Style Kentucky Derby Burgoo: Easy with VitaClay!

Soup and Stew Recipes are great in any VitaClay Model!

I read that in Kentucky they used to have Derby-watching parties, and this was the traditional entree at such parties. Cool!

The ingredients are simple enough, and in some places you can even find a frozen mix of "gumbo vegetables" that could make this even easier.

Since I have access to most of these veggies fresh, I decided to just use fresh. That always tastes better to me.

  • 2 lb grass-fed beef top round, cubed

  • 3 stalks celery, chopped
  • ~25 okra, chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
