Ingredients

1 ½ pounds whole beef tongue
1 quart water
1 (12 ounce) bag dried black beans
4 ounces dried chipped beef
1 chourico, cut into 1-inch pieces
4 ounces bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, minced
1 large tomato, chopped
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 large orange, thinly sliced

Steps:

Place tongue in a large pot, pour in enough water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 3 hours.
Pour 1 quart water and black beans into a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, and boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand 1 hour.
When tongue is done, drain and plunge into cold water. Make a lengthwise cut in the skin, peel off, and discard. Slice the tongue into 1/4-inch slices, and stir into beans along with dried beef, chourico, and bacon. Add water if needed to cover, then bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour.
Heat the vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat, and stir in the garlic and onion. Cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent, then stir in the jalapeno and tomato. Season with salt, and cayenne pepper, then cook until the vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir half of the vegetables into the cooking beans. Continue cooking the beans until tender, about 1 hour more.
Once tender, remove 1/2 cup of beans, and mash with some of the cooking liquid to create a sauce. Stir in reserved vegetables.
To serve, arrange the tongue and sausage onto a serving platter, pour the sauce overtop, and garnish with orange slices. Serve the remaining beans in a separate bowl.

This is my go-to feijoada recipe. It's so easy to make, and it always turns out delicious. I love the way the flavors of the beans, meat, and spices come together. I usually serve it with rice and a side of collard greens.

I'm a vegetarian, but I still love feijoada. I make a vegetarian version of this recipe by using vegetable broth instead of beef broth and omitting the meat. It's just as delicious as the traditional version, and it's a great way to get your daily do

This feijoada recipe is a great way to use up leftover pork. I usually make a big batch of pork roast on the weekend, and then I use the leftovers to make feijoada during the week. It's a quick and easy meal that's also very flavorful.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed. The beans were overcooked and mushy, and the meat was dry and tough. The sauce was also bland and lacked flavor. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be making this recipe again.

This feijoada was a hit at my party! Everyone loved it. I followed the recipe exactly, and it turned out perfectly. The only thing I would change is to add a little more salt and pepper to taste. Other than that, it was perfect.
