Balwin's Stewed Slumgullion

Wither you call it slumgullion or goulash, it is a favorite filling meal just crammed with a healthy great comfort taste. This one pot creation can be stretched when the budget can't be. It is named to honor Guy Balwin a true hero of the LGBT and BDSM communities. Read a short write-up about this leader after the recipe.

Beef, canola beans, tomatoes, and mixed vegetables simmered into a healthy comforting meal. What's not to love? It is a simple honest dinner that helps clean out the refrigerator. Serve this and honor the man who once pointed out that sacred cows make the best hamburgers! 

 

Ingredients

• 1½ to 2 lbs. stew beef
• ½ cup cornstarch
• 1 tsp Old Bay Seasonings
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
• 2 cups beef broth (low salt)
• 2 (15.5-ounce) cans canola beans, drained
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes Un-drained
• 1 pkg frozen mixed vegetables - thawed
• ½ lbs sliced mushrooms
• 1 tsp salt + ½ tsp pepper
• 8 ounces uncooked elbow macaroni

Directions:

Do the cutting. Chop the onion and mince the garlic. 

 

In a bowl, mix 1 tsp Old Bay seasonings into the ½ cup cornstarch. Roll the pieces of stew meat in that.

In a dutch oven over medium heat, saute beef 5 to 6 minutes, or until browned. You might have to do this in batches removing to a paper towel pieces that are browned so as not to crowd. 
 

When meat is browned, add onions to the pot and stir as you loosen the bits from the bottom. Cook and stir for 7 minutes adding garlic during the last minute. Pour in the beef broth to make sure bottom of pot has yielded the last bits of “fond”.

Pour in the cans of beans and stewed tomatoes. Then stir in the meat. Let come to boil, cover and lower heat to a slight simmer.

Let simmer for 20 minutes.

Uncover and add the thawed mixed vegetables and uncooked macaroni.

When that returns to heat, finish with the rinsed mushrooms.

Continue to simmer for 15 minutes covered.

If the mix looks to “soupy” uncover and raise heat for 5 additional minutes to cook off the extra liquid. The meat should be fork-tender.

Serve with a crusty hot bread.

Guy Baldwin, M.S. (b. 1946) is a psychotherapist, author, activist, and educator specializing in issues of particular relevance to the BDSM and leather communities, and more generally in issues relating to non-heteronormative practices.

I read that he never knew his father. Just after his high-school graduation, his mother discovered he was gay and gave him a week to move out. The year was 1965.
Baldwin rented a room at a boardinghouse in Denver, where he went to work as a brakeman/switchman for the Union Pacific Railroad, then later as a page for Colorado House of Representatives.

Beginnings in the Leather Community

Baldwin stumbled upon Denver’s gay leather underground, and it was there he found the men and relationships he has described as his new family. “Most of them felt like dads,” he wrote. “A few were downright motherly. I remember two who most resembled a couple of really crazy aunts, too.”
In 1968, He was introduced to the Rocky Mountaineers, a bike club.  They encouraged Baldwin to go to college. The group rode miles on their bikes to witness his graduation from the University of Colorado in Boulder, where he studied anthropology and education.


That same summer of 1972, Baldwin moved to San Francisco, a kind of mecca for young leathermen. Soon after Baldwin’s arrival, he read a classified ad in the Berkeley Barb, and decided to attend a meeting for “fans of S and M and B and D.” 
The group, as it turned out, gathered in the living room of Cynthia Slater, who had begun to host a monthly “rap meeting” she called the “Society of Janus,” after the Roman God of gates and doors.
Cynthia’s Society of Janus was only the second all-orientation SM political, educational, and support organization in the United States.  Baldwin and Slater became friends, and he was soon teaching classes for Janus.

Career in Psychotherapy

In Los Angeles in the 1970s, Baldwin began retraining for a new career in psychotherapy.
While in graduate school, he met such important figures who were getting homosexuality de-classified as a disease. People like Evelyn Hooker and Judd Marmor, and was invited to attend The Gender Identity Research Group.
Baldwin received his Master’s degree in 1981 and in 1983 was licensed as a psychotherapist in California.


In 1986, Baldwin himself, ran a small classified ad in Drummer, asking for contact from other kink-fluent professional mental-health providers.
He hoped to build a network of like-minded professionals like himself. Race Bannon, Baldwin’s long-time friend, came forward to help. 


Bannon eventually published it online, expanding it to include other kink-friendly medical, dental, and legal professionals, giving birth to the vital international resource now known as the Kink-Aware Professionals List. 
Today the list is managed by the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom as a free service to all.

1990s

In demand for 35 years as an educator and writer, Baldwin has presented lectures, workshops and seminars about leather and SM sexuality. He may still be best known to readers for his monthly Drummer column on leather relationship issues, “Ties That Bind,” which appeared between 1986 and 1992.  Those essays and others were collected in his 1993 book, Ties That Bind, edited by Joseph Bean.

SlaveCraft appeared in 2002, Baldwin’s most controversial and possibly most influential book, detailing one man’s deeply personal and intimate discoveries on his journey into profound submission.

Arguably, Baldwin’s greatest impact has been as a visible public figure in the leather, kink and M/s communities. His experience and service have made him possibly the most honored leatherman who ever lived.

Guy has delivered memorable keynote speeches for the Leather Leadership Conference and the International Master/slave Weekend Topics like: "Sacred Cows Make the Best Hamburger" and "Rad-sex Rising Tide: Turbo-Pervo Tonic."

Guy Blawin has never been president of any club, organization or foundation.  His stature, his authority, his recognition as a leader and spokesman comes solely from his personal qualities - his insight, eloquence, and courage. 

For Guy Baldwin is that rarest, maybe most important kind of leader:  he's changed the world not by telling anyone what to do, but by telling us the truth. 

Let me admit that slave was truly honored to chat with this man on the internet the other day. Thank You for all you continue to do.
