slumgullion
Cheap meat stew
Slumgullion is a cheap, watery stew made from whatever ingredients are available—meat scraps, vegetables, leftovers.
The word evokes Depression-era cooking or camp food, something thrown together without a recipe: We made slumgullion from the week's leftovers.
By extension, any unappetizing hodgepodge or muddy slop.
