Ingredients

scaled from 8 servings
  • 1/4 lb dried black beans
  • 3 oz smoked pork sausage (linguica)
  • 1/4 lb pork shoulder
  • 1 1/2 oz thick-cut bacon
  • 1 yellow onion

Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)

  1. Soak black beans overnight, or quick-soak: cover with water, boil 2 minutes, then rest off heat 1 hour; drain.
  2. In a large pot, render diced bacon, then brown cubed pork shoulder and sliced sausage in batches; remove meats.
  3. Saute diced onion and garlic in the fat until soft, about 5 minutes.
  4. 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.
  5. Squeeze in orange juice and simmer uncovered 10 minutes to thicken.
  6. Cook white rice and serve the stew over rice.
