Time 3h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 hocks smoked ham hocks
1 white onion
6 slices thick-cut bacon, cut into chunks
½ pound fresh chorizo sausage
2 medium whole (2-3/5" dia) (blank)s tomatoes, chopped

1 pinch salt to taste

Steps:

  • Place ham hocks into a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Boil until meat pulls back on bone, about 2 hours. Remove meat from bones, cut into bite-sized chunks. Reserve the bones but discard any fat.
  • Chop 1/2 of the white onion, and leave other 1/2 whole; set aside.
