OMGosh- The best stew recipe that I have ever made. My kids loved this recipe. I served it with corn muffins and we were all in heaven. I added mushrooms to the recipe, but didn't modify anything else. It's will be a staple at my house this winter.

I think it works better without the corn, also instead of bacon strips I used bacon bits. I also diced the onion instead of cutting it. Anyways the end result is very good. It is spicy, which I am normally not a fan for, but this turned out just right.
