All I know is Brunswick Stew is dee-licious, whether it's from SSI or VA. I like to think it was SSI since I love the place and lived there for a spell, but if the Virginians need to steal claim to other people's inventions, so be it.

I can settle this debate, as it stands. First, the Georgia plate, according to the site, ascribes the first instance of Brunswick Stew to the year 1898. However, a seminal 1878 Virginia cookbook, entitled "Housekeeping in Old Virginia" (at http://digital.lib.msu.edu/projects/cookbooks/html/books/book_34.cfm), includes many recipes for Brunswick Stew. Additionally, by cross-referencing the contributors' names with their listed locations, the recipes mostly originate from the Virginia Piedmont. How about them peaches? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.111.243.204 (talk) 05:04, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Nobody gives a shit. Brunswick stew is so incredibly awesome that it defies all other things delicious, including, but not limited to: Jello, Gargamel's Papa Smurf Stew, Doritos, beef jerky, and grilled cheese sandwiches with prize bull semen topping.
