Burgoo is a thick mixed meat and vegetable stew with a tangy taste. This burger and succotash combine the flavors and ingredients to make[ any burger night into Derby Day. The stew is served with a stiff biscuit that is replaced here by the sammy-sized English muffin.] Ingredients:
1 pound ground sirloin |
1 pound ground pork |
2 teaspoons paprika |
2 cloves garlic, grated or minced |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce, eyeball it |
handful fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped |
salt and freshly ground black pepper |
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided |
1 small onion, finely chopped |
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped |

1 cup tomato sauce |
1 cup frozen lima beans |
1 cup frozen corn |
