NOTES : We make this in a BIG iron kettle over an open fire. Takes two days to accomplish this feat! Day 1 we cook meat and chop all the veggies! Day two we cook! Then we either can or freeze to have in the winter. This is usually a group effort! Lots of friends, family and neighbors!! We also usually have chickens, chops, and ribs on the bbq pit!
