• Notes

  It is assumed that during the years when Festus was making his way from PA to Canada, at night we would set camp, make a fire and cook the wonderful goulash. Others traveling north at that time, would often follow Festus, would wander over to visit, in hopes of getting a serving of the tasty dish. When Festus arrived in Ontario and met and married Hannah Price, she too learned the secret of this favorite dish. She shared this recipe with her children. Abraham was the one who handed it down. So, the recipe was handed down through generations. During the 50’s the recipe was altered a bit when spaghetti came out in a can. The recipe: 1-2# ground round 1 onion 1 can Franco American Spaghetti 1 can Pork ‘n Beans Brown ground round with onion until well cooked. Salt and pepper to taste. Toss in spaghetti and beans and simmer until heated through. a tinge of brown sugar may be added, depending on your taste. Make as much or as little as you like. May be stored in refrigerator and served as a left-over. Good with a tossed salad and home-made bread.
