*This thick and spicy stew has been around since prior to the American Revolution.* Our Beef Pepper Pot is made with braised beef, smoky bacon, potatoes, mustard greens, green peppers, onion, celery, tomatoes, habanero peppers, and herbs in a spicy broth. Through the transatlantic slave trade, these recipes reached the Atlantic Coast, where colonial Black women adapted them to include beef, root vegetables, and local spices.
