American frontier stew? (4,4)
I believe the answer is:
wild west
This might be a double definition.
'american frontier' is the first definition.
'wild west' can be an answer for 'frontier' (I have seen 'old frontier' mean 'wild west' so perhaps 'frontier' could also mean 'wild west'). I'm not certain of the 'american' bit.
'stew?' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for wild west that I've seen before include "Where "cowboys and Indians" was first played?" , "Untamed part of America where cowboy films are set" , "old frontier" , "US frontier land" , "Lawless area of early US settlement" .)
