     This is so good!!! The only thing that I changed was a substitution of Black Beans for Lima Beans. - 4/30/12

     Loved it. I suggest adding the sweet potatoes about 1 hour into cooking if they are bite size. And add corn starch and water about 30 minutes before finishing the cooking. Other than that, I really enjoyed the recipe. Oh, and only use 2 onions. - 5/30/12

     Made for church supper (hot sauce on side for Lutherans) w/sweet potatoes; substituted a mix of home-cooked beans (Lima, navy, black) & added a few tablespoons of barley.Therefore,did not use thickener. Excellent flavor & nutrition, works even on a paper plate if you have enough vegetables. - 12/5/12

     I made the recipe as printed except my can of tomatoes had salt. It was just OK; bland to my tastes. Most Burgoo recipes include Worcester Sauce. vinegar or lemon juice (acid!) and salt which i will add next time to boost flavor. Maybe shredded cabbage too. - 10/22/12

     Easy to make. Substitute scallions or sweet onions or leeks for the yellow onions if you are concerned about onion overload. - 4/3/12

     I made this stew today and i love it. I though that 3 medium onion was going to make it strong but it doesn't. I will be making this again. - 3/14/12

     The family loves it, and it's a perfect tummy-warmer in the winter. We also used black beans instead of limas, and we serve it with some whole grain seedy bread. SO good! - 11/2/12

     We did not love this recipe. It was a bit bland. - 7/27/12

     This was very good. I added chicken broth because it was a little too dry without it. - 1/16/13

     My family loves this one! We don't like sweet potato so I substited yukon gold potatoes and green peas for the lima beans. We like things spicey so I also increased the chili flakes. I will definitely be making this again! - 9/14/12

     SOOOOO good! I normally am not a huge fan of pork or chicken, but it was just amazing in this stew! - 8/7/12

     I really liked it and my hubby did too. Kids.... Not as much. - 7/17/12
  • HAPPYERIN
     My husband and I enjoyed this! I'm not usually a fan of pork, but it worked well in this dish -- very tender! A great blend of flavors that is different from the norm. We subbed black beans for the limas. Very easy, we'll make this again! - 7/17/12

     Had this for dinner, was delicious! Substituted Garbanzo Beans for Lima Beans, added some quartered mushrooms, cut stock to 1.5 cups and added a half cup of Shiraz. Totally forgot the corn though. - 6/20/12
  • PEGJW111
     Very good. I forgot to add the corn starch (bummer). Served it over brown rice. Nice amount of zesty spice. - 5/16/12
  • SPWITHSPIRIT
     VeryGood! Did not have celery, so used 1t of celery seed. Did not add lima beans or corn; did add 5 small potatoes diced (on top per instructions for sweet potato). Added a cooked sweet potato diced at the end &stirred in. Used large can diced tomatoes & more garlic, used all pork no chicken - 3/10/14
  • CARIOLA
     Looks like peas were substituted for the lima beans. I'll try that! - 2/16/14
  • TYR96570
     Wonderful recipe. I ate 3 bowls the very first time we made it. This is a do-again recipe. - 9/20/13
  • SSNEELY
     I loved this recipe. My husband and I added Franks Hot Sauce right before eating... I like somewhat spicy but he likes hot so adding after serving is best. Very tasty and filling! - 8/18/12
  • LEOPARDKISA
     I used peas instead of corn and took out the lima beans, also used the pre-minced garlic in the jar instead. My crock pots cooked this way faster than the recommended 5 hours, meat was totally cooked at 2 hours and I added veggies then and cooked for one more hour on the lowest possible setting - 7/21/12

     Oh, easy and flavorful! thank you! - 6/17/12
  • MITSRN
     I used russet potatoes instead of sweet and decreased onions to 1 med and added 1 chopped green pepper. I also included a tablespoon of Worchestershire sauce as the original recipe calls for some. Very good but next time I think I wll have to add a little lean beef and might use beef stock instead. - 5/1/12
  • MELISSAJUDGE820
