Saiko's Georgia Brunswick Stew
http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1033041&postcount=1

2 lb. chopped BBQ meat
2 TBSP of your favorite rub (I'm using Yardbird today)
2 28oz cans whole tomatoes, including the juice
2 11oz cans shoepeg corn (if you can't find shoepeg, just use any sweet)
1 1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup your favorite BBQ sauce (I'm using Blue's Hog today)
2 cups water
1 tsp black pepper
2 tsp salt
1/2 to 1 tsp cayenne (I use 1/2 tsp due to wifey)
1 tsp hot sauce
1 stick butter (please, no margarine)


Add the rub to the chopped meat and mix well with your hands.
Cut the whole tomatoes into large chunks and include the juice.
Add all the ingredients except the butter to a large crockpot. You don't HAVE to use a crockpot, but I like to cook mine for about 6 hours to maximize the smokey flavor of the meat.
Mix well, then throw the butter on top. I run on high heat until the butter is melted, then mix everything again and turn it down to low until time to serve. Usually about 6 hours.

This is a traditional Virginia Stew, and is very good.
