Never heard of that either. Only thing close to something like that is a sauce my aunt makes for those little cocktail weenies that has grape jelly in it. Don't know that I've ever tried it, just heard her talk about making it.

No, I don't eat stew over rice; just by itself. It's full of enough stuff already, and I prefer stew with homemade yeast rolls.

However, the reason I don't eat stew over rice is because of having subsisted for about a year on Louisiana food in New Orleans. I eat gumbo, boudin and jambalaya with rice.

Again, same concept just not nearly that much jelly. Just enough to give it a hint of sweet with the spicy

No no no. The big king crabs and snow crabs I like steamed. Regular blue crabs we boil with lots of spices. Otherwise they taste like dirt.

They are a lot better out your way. The gulf here is pretty dirty and you can tell the difference. They are a lot cleaner and sweeter over there.

That's a staple of good stew. I've had friends ask me how I create the gravy instead of it being watery, and I tell them I use a roux.
