I really enjoyed this stew, and I don't usually enjoy stew very much. I didn't have the apples or squash, but I will definitely have them on hand for the next time--I'm sure they would just make this even better.

We loved this recipe. The only change I made was to add 2 tbs of honey at the end for a slightly sweeter finish. It was great and so easy!

This was very good, better than we expected. We didn't end up using quite as much butternut squash or potato as it called for, it seemed like there was enough in the pot so we stopped chopping. We also used fresh rosemary from our garden instead of dried. We all felt that it needed extra salt and pepper but otherwise it was delicious and hearty and perfect for a cold fall day.

I didn't have any sage or rosemary, so I just seasoned mine with salt and pepper. I added a little apple cider to the pot, and some chopped celery. I really wanted to try one of the 'dinner in a pumpkin' recipes from this site, but I thought the flavors of this stew would go better with the pumpkin than any of the ones in those recipes. I made the stew the night before and simmered it on low for about 1 hour. The next day I used this stew to bake in my pumpkin, and it turned out delicious. I left out the squash and scraped the pumpkin meat into the stew when serving.

This was absolutely delicious! The apples provided just a tinge of sweetness. My hubby absolutely loved this! I used leftover pork roast, so I did not add that to the skillet since it didn't need to be cooked anymore. After simmering, the pork totally fell apart and absorbed all the broth. I've added another 3 cups of broth. That was my fault. I'll follow the recipe starting with raw pork next time.

Really just average. I added 1/2 tsp of pepper, worcestshire sauce & more salt. That seemed to compensate for the lacking flavor. I also stirred in some milk and a couple tablespoons of flour at the end like others suggested to thicken it up. Those things brought the recipe up to a 4 star but as it is written it is definitely only a 3.

My wife does not care for cooked carrots or squash so I added extra potato and mushrooms. It was not as attractive as it would have been with the more colorful ingredients, but it was delicious.

I would give it a 5 star rating however I didn't have apples or squash so I substituted pitted prunes. It made a nice brown rich gravy. Will make it again with the apples and squash next time.

I tried it with chicken breast instead of pork and it turned out well. I put everything in the slow cooker without any precooking. I also used fresh squash instead of frozen. I liked it but next time I'll try pork for more flavor.

Very good stew. I am making it for the second time tonight. I always add some corn to the mixture and instead of apple, I add about 1/4 cup of good quality apricot preserves. Yummy!

I used fresh squash and left out the carrots because I didn't have any.Used a combination of Braeburn and Granny Smith apples and left the peels on my potatos cause I like em that way! got mixed reviews from the kids, most gave it a 3.5, none HATED it. I thought it got better and better the more I ate. I am thinking it will be even better tomorrow. Thanks for the great recipe.

This is a delicious healthy one pot meal. It's comforting and is a huge variation from the usual pork dishes I make. I used low-sodium chicken broth so I would imagine it would be even better with regular broth. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

This stew was pretty good! I made a couple of changes. I used a copy cat recipe of Prudhommes Poultry Magic on the meat when I browned it and then salt & pepper to taste later. I also used sweet potato instead of white. I hate Macintosh apples so i used Galas that I had in the fridge. I cooked it a little longer than 20 mins after adding the potatoes, squash & carrots. I'll be eating the leftovers today and think it will taste even better! Thanks for a stew that's a change from the usual.

My husband told me it was the best bowl of soup he's ever had! I personally don't like the texture of the apples but they really add something to the flavor so I wouldn't omit them, but maybe cut them smaller next time.

This had good flavor! I used fresh cubed squash, leeks instead of onion. It seemed like it was missing something, though. Maybe I will add a chopped bitter green next time.

Delicious! I doubled it for big family gathering, put it in 5 qt. pan. Didn't have room to double potatoes and apples, but still great. Everyone loved it and asked for the recipe! I added apple cider in addition to/instead of chicken broth and a few dashes soy sauce. I increased salt a bit, added garlic and onion powders in addition to the fresh garlic & onion. The sage and rosemary really complement this dish well! Make sure you use very fresh spices, as is the case with any recipe. I also used beef chuck roast since I didn't have pork handy and it was awesome. I look forward to trying it with pork. I also used fresh butternut squash, peeled with vegetable peeler and cubed, since that's all I had on hand. Yummers! Oh, and since I like the meat very tender, I simmered the meat with liquids/spices about an hour before adding veggies, then simmered another 1/2 hour. Adding the veggies long after the meat was an excellent idea and helped veggies retain their pretty color and shapes. I cut carrots on the bias for oval shapes instead of cubing, but either would be pretty.
