Most OTL recipes have an approximate 30-40 min. cooking time. But some things are good enough to be an exception, like this stew which takes that much plus 1 hour to simmer. We eliminated the cornbread dumplings from the original recipe to simplify it, but you absolutely must get your hands on some cornbread to go along with it anyhow. Use our recipe or purchase a boxed mix.
