  • 2 cloves garlic chopped
  • 946 ml 4 cups water
  • 2 432 ml cans (15.2 oz) whole kernel corn, with liquid
  • 2 425 ml cans (15 oz) pinto beans, with liquid
  • 2 411 ml cans (14.5 oz) peeled and diced tomatoes, drained

Instructions
 

  • Gather all the ingredients.
  • Cook the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crumbly but not yet cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the sausage, onion, and garlic. Cook and stir until the meat is no longer pink and the onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain any grease from the pan.
  • Transfer the beef and sausage mixture to a large pot over medium-low heat. Add the water, corn, pinto beans, diced tomatoes, diced tomatoes with chile peppers, and mixed vegetables.
  • Stir in the potatoes, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Cover the pot and simmer for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally. The longer it cooks, the better it will taste!
  • I hope this makes the recipe easier to follow! Enjoy your Texas Cowboy Stew!
