The thing about burgoo is I make it different about every time and it always taste the about the same, I'm told I make really good burgoo, I don't know I've been making it my entire life so I have no recipe.

That is pretty much how I cook everything so I understand. I was wondering about what meat you use, but guess just whatever is on hand. I like Brunswick stew with chicken and pork barbeque.
