  • Feijoada is started a day in advance. The beans are placed in a deep dish with cold water and left to soak in the refrigerator overnight.
  • In another deep container, soak the dried meat and let it soak overnight as well.
  • The next day, in a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the cubed pork, onion, garlic, and season with pepper. Cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add the ham, chorizo, ribs, and dried meat to the pot. Add the beans and enough water to cover all the ingredients.
  • Allow the mixture to boil, reduce to low heat, cover, and cook for 2 hours. Add more water during cooking if necessary.
  • With a spoon, mash approximately 1 cup of the beans for the consistency of the dish. Season the dish with salt and pepper.
  • Remove from heat and serve.
