Dwight D. Eisenhower (1953-1961) Beef Stew

In 1955, the Associated Press printed the recipe for Ike’s favorite beef stew, which his wife, Mamie, originally shared with the North Dakota Cow-Belles, an auxiliary of the North Dakota Stockmen’s Association. “The Cow-Belles were a bit taken aback at first because the recipe was for 60 portions,” the AP reported.
