A Hearty Homestead Stew with Deep Frontier Roots

Inspired by the wide-open plains and no-nonsense cooking of the Great Plains, our Dakota Territory Beef Barley Stew is a rustic, stick-to-your-ribs classic. This dry soup mix brings together hearty lentils, shiitake mushrooms, leeks, and barley, seasoned simply to let the ingredients shine. Just add cubed beef and let it simmer low and slow to create a warm, deeply satisfying meal that tastes like it came straight from a cast iron pot by a cabin fire.

This stew reminds us of the kind of meals frontier families relied on—hearty, nourishing, and built to feed a crowd after a long day’s work. Whether you're tucked in for winter or feeding your own homestead crew, this long-simmered classic hits the spot.

This is comfort food with a pioneer spirit—simple, soulful, and deeply satisfying. Gather 'round and taste the timeless tradition of the Dakota Territory.
