ingredients
2 pounds tripe, cut into thin strips 3" long
2 pig's feet, split
4 quarts beef broth or water
4 onions, coarsely chopped
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
6 small dried hot chilies
10 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 can (14 ounce size) hominy
4 tomatoes, chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into thin strips
1 green bell pepper, seeded and cut into thin strips
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
hot flour tortillas, for accompaniment
directions
In a 6-quart stockpot, put tripe and pig's feet and add water to cover. Bring to a boil, pour off water, and add broth.
Add onions, bay leaf, cracked pepper, dried chilies, garlic, oregano, and cumin, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a rapid simmer and continue cooking until meats are tender (3 to 4 hours).
When cool enough to handle, remove pig's feet and bone them. Return boned meat to pot, add remaining ingredients, except accompaniment, and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes. Adjust seasoning.
Serve hot, accompanied with a basket of hot flour tortillas.

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
