Ingredients

• 1 lb Dried beans
• 1 lb Pork ribs
• 1/2 lb Chouriço sausage
• 1/2 lb Smoked ham
• 2 Onion
• 4 cloves Garlic
• 2 Carrots
• 1/2 head Cabbage
• 3 tbsp Olive oil

Steps

1. Soak the beans overnight; drain and simmer 45 minutes until nearly tender.
2. Brown the ribs, chouriço, and ham in olive oil until the edges caramelize.
3. Soften the onion, garlic, and carrots in the rendered fat 8 minutes.
4. Combine everything with water to cover and simmer 60 minutes until the beans are creamy and the meats surrender.
5. Stir in shredded cabbage for the last 15 minutes; it should wilt into the stew.
6. Rest 10 minutes and serve over rice with orange slices — the citrus cuts the richness beautifully.
