Serves 20

*I wasn’t about to shell out 6 bucks for a tiny (you know, the kind that are an inch tall) bottle of whole allspice. If you can even find it whole. I just used some ground allspice.

*I also don’t have spice bags, so I got a thin, very clean rag, cut a square out, and used that for my spices.

*I served mine in a crockpot, but growing up my mom would leave it in the stock pot on low heat.
