This special stew is the meal our two kids look forward to each fall because we only get to enjoy it when the fresh pumpkins come out of the garden. The stew is cooked and served right in the pumpkin shell. A true taste of autumn, it also makes a pretty presentation at a potluck. -Donna Mosher, Augusta, Montana More Pumpkin Stew Recipes »

I made this few times and I absolutely love the pumpkin mixed in with the stew as you scrape it while serving. Excellent recipe for Halloween and Thanksgiving, or even on football Sunday.

Been making this for Halloween for a couple of years and it is big hit. Just be really careful not to overcook the pumpkin. It is truly delicious.

Awesome stew! Kids love it and request it every Halloween. I serve it in small pie pumpkins.

This recipe is awesome! I make it at least once a month in the fall when pumpkins are in season. Tastes really good if served in individual bread bowls.One thing I have found - try looking for a 10 1/2" to an 11" high pumpkin when shopping for this recipe. That will help to determine the size pumpkin you will need.Also, I found that this only serves approx. 5 (maybe 6) instead of 8-10.

I made this years ago for a Halloween dinner. It was great. I added grated tart apples and nutmeg. Have a hard time finding the right size pumpkin.
