Ingredients
- 1 pound beef tendons
- 1 pound boneless beef shanks, cut into serving portions
- water
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 onion, peeled and chopped
- 1 can (28 ounces) pork and beans
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat, combine beef shanks, beef tendon, and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, skimming scum that accumulates on top.
- Lower heat, cover, and simmer for about 1 ½ to 2 hours or until beef and tendon are fork-tender.
- Drain and reserve 1 cup of the liquid.
- In a pot over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and cook until limp.
- Add beef shanks and tendons and cook until lightly browned.
- Add pork and beans and reserved liquid. Continue to simmer for about 3 to 5 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.
Notes
Beef tendons are tough and fibrous connective tissues and are almost impossible to cut uncooked. You can ask the butcher to slice them into serving pieces or halfway during cooking when they're soft enough to slice through, remove them from the pot, cut them into serving parts, and then return to the pot to continue to cook.
