mulligan stew
Definition:
Said to have originated in hobo camps during the early 1900s, mulligan stew is a sort of catch-all dish of whatever is available. It usually contains meat, potatoes and vegetables in just about any combination. The name indicates that its origins might come from Irish stew, but it's also often compared to Kentucky burgoo. The cook at a hobo camp responsible for putting this tasty concoction together was called a "mulligan-mixer."
