ingredients
5 pounds bottom round beef, cut into 2 to 3-inches pieces
OR
5 pounds 2-inch thick chuck roast with bone-in
1/2 stick butter
3 meaty shin bones, about 2 1/2 pounds each
1 pound salt pork
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
3 large cloves garlic or taste
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon wine vinegar
1 cinnamon stick (2-inch)
6 balls Jamaican allspice
2 teaspoons coarse salt or to taste
2 small malegueta chili peppers
OR
2 pinches dried crushed red pepper
directions
Place all the ingredients in a deep heavy pot, large enough to accommodate all. Pour in enough cold water to come up 3/4 the side of the ingredients. Cover tightly and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 3 to 4 hours, until the meat is fork tender and nearly falling off the bone.
Serve with sauteed greens and boiled potatoes.

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
