In a large pot over medium heat, add the smoky beef sausage and ground beef. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the meats are browned and fragrant.

Once the meats are browned, add diced onions to the pot. Cook them for another 4-5 minutes until the onions turn translucent and tender.

Stir in the tomato paste and your chosen spices, allowing them to cook for about 1-2 minutes. Then, add in the chopped potatoes.

Pour in enough broth to cover all the ingredients in the pot. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over high heat.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and allow the stew to simmer uncovered for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally.

In the last 10 minutes of simmering, gently fold in your carved mushrooms.

Once the potatoes are tender, ladle the Witches Brew Stew into bowls while hot, and serve with cornbread.
