This one is real easy. Just takes some time.
Every Wed. I go to Market Basket and buy every meat on sale.
Right now, I have 10 lbs. of chicken wings and 2 pork roasts on the smoker.
I bought 2 packs of pork looking stew meat on sale and seasoned with Tonys and put in a ziplock overnight in the fridge.
Today, took a papertowel with oil and wiped the whole inside of the pot.
Browned the meat real good, then chunked in about 6 nice sized yeller onions chopped up. Stir occaisionally until the onions are real soft and the bottom of the pot is covered with brown grot.
Add a lil water and get all the grot off the bottom. This is the good stuff that makes the gravy browner and gooder.
Cover and let the bottom turn brown again. I go by smell. When it smells like it is almost ready to burn, remove cover and add a lil water again and scrape all the grot off the bottom.
Once the onions are all cooked to nothing, I add about 6 more nice sized onions that are chopped up and stir in. Cover and let them cook down, these get more of the grot off the bottom. Add what ever seasoning you like at this time. I like any brand of Creole Seasoning.
Repeat adding water, letting the bottom of the pot brown, adding water... ect. untill the meat is real tender and about to fall apart.
Cook some rice and eat dat.
The more onions, the better the flavor.
I don't like crunchy onions in my gravy. I cook them down real good.
