Cornbread is a classic for Brunswick stew! It's nice and fluffy and helps soak up the rich flavors. But other options like mashed potatoes, rice, or even a side salad would also be delicious. No matter what you choose, I'm sure your guests will love it!

That sounds like a fantastic dinner plan with Brunswick stew! From my experience, here are some sides that really complement the rich flavors of the stew:

1. Cornbread: A classic choice that pairs wonderfully with the hearty and savory nature of Brunswick stew. The slight sweetness of cornbread contrasts nicely with the stew's flavors.
2. Collard Greens: Braised collard greens with a touch of vinegar or hot sauce can add a delicious Southern flair and a bit of tang that complements the stew well.
3. Coleslaw: A crisp and creamy coleslaw can provide a refreshing contrast to the stew. The crunchiness and slight sweetness of the coleslaw can balance out the stew's richness.
4. Buttermilk Biscuits: Fluffy biscuits are another great option for soaking up the flavors of the stew. They're perfect for mopping up every last bit from the bowl.
5. Green Salad: A simple green salad with a light vinaigrette can add freshness and a contrast in texture to the meal.
6. Potato Salad: A creamy potato salad with a hint of mustard can be a comforting side that complements the stew's flavors.

These sides not only enhance the stew but also offer variety in textures and flavors to impress your guests. Enjoy your dinner party!
