Pirate Stew

This is what Black Beard ate when he landed in the Caribbean. Actually, I have no idea why this is called pirate stew. More importantly, it's tasty! Thank you to Uncle Bill, Kelsey's uncle who gave me this recipe after I went back for 3 servings. Going back for more has to be the best compliment you can give a chef!
