My mother-in-law brought us a big pot of cowboy stew. I don't have her
recipe, but it seems similar to the one below. It's simple, good,
comfort food - ground beef, potatoes, tomatoes, beans, corn, onion, chili
powder. Cornbread is nice on the side. She tells me not to freeze it,
but I always freeze half. The potatoes don't get too weird.

I make similar but no chili powder.

Never heard of it, but you're right - sounds like comfort food.
Thanks for the recipe. I have all the necessary ingredients.

Why would any decent cook use canned corn, or canned "ranch style" beans?

One wouldn't.

Are you incapable of altering a recipe to suit yourself? I was
wondering what ranch style beans brought to the party and thinking
this would be a good way to use up leftover borracho beans. I also
have lots of corn that I charred myself in the freezer, but I wouldn't
waste it on a stew like this - I'll just buy a bag of fire roasted
corn at Trader Joe's to use.
