Portuguese Feijoada.

Portuguese Feijoada Recipe - A Recipe for Feijoada | Hunter Angler Gardener Cook:
Feijoada (Portuguese) is a stew of beans with beef and pork.
The name comes from feijão, Portuguese for "beans".
Or
2 pounds white beans or Canario yellow beans
1 ham hock or smoked turkey leg
2 pounds linguica sausage (smoke cured pork sausage)
2 pounds pork shoulder, cut into large chunks (or chopped heart, or shanks)
1 pig’s trotter (optional)
2 large carrots, sliced into rounds
1 large onion, chopped
1 head garlic, peeled but otherwise whole
1 tablespoon piri-piri hot sauce or chile paste
1 tablespoon ground coriander seed
4 bay leaves
1/2 cup crushed tomatoes
Black pepper and chopped parsley to garnish
Salt
At least 2 quarts pork broth or water

Soak beans for at least 8 hours. If you don’t have 8 hours, soak repeatedly in the hottest water you can get from the tap, replacing it when it cools. This second method should take about 3 hours.
In a large pot or Dutch oven, gently brown the pork shoulder in a tablespoon or two of olive oil. Do this in batches and don’t crowd the pot. While you are doing this, preheat oven to 300°F. Hack at the trotter with a cleaver or heavy chefs knife to open it up in many places — this is to let the collagen and fat infuse into the stew.
When the pork shoulder has browned, remove it for the moment and add the onions. Cook until translucent. Add back the browned pork shoulder, the trotter, ham hock, coriander, bay leaves and a healthy sprinkling of salt, then add the beans and mix it all together.
Cover by 1 inch with pork broth or water. Ideally you are making this as an adjunct to making stock, such as when you have large pieces of a hog, like, say, a head. The feijoada will be better with pork broth, but don’t despair if you don’t have any. Use water or vegetable broth. Do not substitute beef or chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cover. Put in the oven for 90 minutes.
Remove from oven and test the beans. If they are getting sorta tender, you’re good. If they are still rocks, return to the oven for another 20 minutes. If the beans are getting tender, add the linguica sausage, carrots, garlic cloves, chile paste and tomatoes. Cover and return to the oven for 30 minutes.
Check to see how the carrots are doing. The beans should be tender by now. Once the carrots are soft but not falling apart, remove the sausage, slice into chunks, and return to the pot. Pull out the shanks and trotter if you are using them and pull off all the meat and fat, etc. Chop as coarsely as you like and put back in the stew. Return to the oven for 10 minutes.
Remove and, still covered, leave the pot on top of the stove for up to 20 minutes, although you can serve immediately. Ladle into bowls, garnish with chopped parsley and black pepper, and serve with crusty bread and a lusty Portuguese wine, such as Touriga Nacional.
