    The full recipe is here and it's common to mod or substitute Brunswick Stew. My fave way to eat it is as a pot pie.

    There's very little actual information in the article, so I did some digging - here is the recipe:
    - - - - - - - - - -
    Brunswick Stew

    In a 2 gallon pot, over low heat melt ¼ lb of butter then add:
    3 cups small diced potatoes
    1 cup small diced onion
    2 14½ oz. cans of chicken broth
    1 lb baked chicken (white and dark)
    8-10 oz. smoked pork

    Bring to a rolling boil, stirring until potatoes are near done, then add:
    1 8½ oz. can early peas
    2 14½ oz. cans stewed tomatoes - (chop tomatoes, add liquid to the stew pot)
    3 cups prepared onion barbecue sauce
    1 16 oz. can of baby lima beans
    ¼ cup Liquid Smoke
    1 14½ oz. can creamed corn
    Slow simmer for 2 hours
    - - - - - - - - - -
    The exciting revelation is that this recipe actually contains more than twice the percentage of hydrogen by weight that is stated in the article. Real progress.

    It's my small contribution to the dialogue between the prematurely old and the young.

    From the wikipedia entry:
    Another famous advertising campaign from the early 1980s took the viewer inside various gourmet restaurants as a voice-over whispered, "We are here at (insert name of four-star restaurant), where we've secretly replaced the fine coffee they usually serve with Folgers Crystals. Let's see if anyone can tell the difference!" Of course, no one ever did.
