quick stew option

Add frozen meat and frozen tomato liquid to stew pot, with a little jar rinsings to help thaw out without sticking to the bottom of the pan.

As I mentioned in the Squashed Deer Stew recipe:
When I can tomatoes, like everyone, to make paste I cut the tomatoes, boil them up but then I remove the liquid with a ladle before the tomato flesh completely disintegrates. That way I don't have to boil the tomatoes forever to remove excess liquid, plus I either can or freeze the liquid to use for other things (stew, soup, etc).

Couple hours later: perfect stew!
