Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)
- Soak black beans overnight, or quick-soak: cover with water, boil 2 minutes, then rest off heat 1 hour; drain.
- In a large pot, render diced bacon, then brown cubed pork shoulder and sliced sausage in batches; remove meats.
- Saute diced onion and garlic in the fat until soft, about 5 minutes.
- Return meats, add beans, bay leaves, and water to cover by 2 inches; simmer covered 2 to 2.5 hours until the beans are creamy and the pork shreds easily.
- Squeeze in orange juice and simmer uncovered 10 minutes to thicken.
- Cook white rice and serve the stew over rice.
