Mulligan stew (food)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mulligan stew is a kind of dish said to have been prepared by hobos in camps in the early 1900s. Usually, it includes meat, potatoes, vegetables, and whatever else can be found. The hobo who put it together was known as the "mulligan mixer".
Mulligan stew is also an alcoholic mixed drink with a rum base, usually set on fire.
