Ingredients

  • 1 frozen bag hominy (you can use canned if you can't find frozen - about 2-4 of the large cans)
  • 4 pounds honeycomb tripe (beef)
  • 4 pounds boneless roast
  • 4 pounds rump pork roast
  • 2-4 beef bouillon cubes or beef broth (to cover)
  • 2 tablespoons oregano
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic (crushed)
  • Shredded green cabbage
  • limes OR
  • New Mexico Red Chile

Method

  • Wash hominy very well until all the lime is off (if using frozen). If using canned: Just empty can(s) and water they are in into large stew pot.
  • Dice pork and beef and boil, with salt in a separate pot with enough water to cover for one hour.
  • If using frozen hominy: Boil hominy in separate pan covered with water for one hour. If using canned - save and after pork and beef boiled add to it with hominy water
  • Add hominy, hominy water and beef bouillon cubes to taste, garlic and 1 1/2 Tbs. oregano. (If using beef broth - reduce hominy liquid and add broth instead to cover both meat and hominy to top of pan.)
  • Meanwhile, dice tripe into approximately 2" pieces (tripe will shrink while cooking so do not cut too small). Place in pot with water to cover, salt and 1/2 Tbs. oregano. Cook for about one hour.
  • When tripe is cooked add to pot with hominy and meat . Cook and warm through.
  • Serve with New Mexico Red Chile or shredded cabbage and limes.
