Brazilian Feijoada (FeeJhona) is a meat purveyor’s favorite kind of recipe, as it's loaded with a variety of meat cuts. It is often served with white rice and collard or mustard greens. Other buffalo cuts or sausages could be substituted for your personal taste. This is a winning recipe that will take the gold, feed a crowd and please them too!

Preheat oven to 375°, with top rack positioned in the middle of the oven.
Cut short rib strips into 3 to 4 pieces each.
In a large stockpot over medium high heat, heat the olive oil.
Add ribs pieces to the pot and lightly brown.
Crumble the chorizo in and push around the bottom a bit, exposing it to direct heat. Cook for about 5 minutes.
Add onion, garlic, and seasoning to the pot, stir into the chorizo and ribs, and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Add broth and water to the pot and bring to a full boil.
Cover the pot and place in the preheated oven and braise until ribs are tender and falling off the bone, about 2½ hours. Cook longer if needed.
Return stockpot to the stove top over medium heat and add the sausage, corned brisket, and beans. Stir to incorporate. Cover and cook for 30 minutes.
Season to taste. *Flavor is better when the dish is warm and not piping hot.
To serve, spoon over rice, squeeze a fresh orange wedge over dish and garnish with orange pieces, green onion, and cilantro.
