Default Pork N Peppers

This is a super easy and great tasting dish. Its not fancy at all just some good ole home cooking. Starting with about 2 1/2lbs of odd ball cuts of meat left over from cleaning a hog. Cut it into stew meat chunks and get it browning. I have used back strap and its very good but too fine a piece of meat to use for this. I prefer to use the trimmings and just simmer them until tender. A pressure cooker will greatly decrease your simmer time also. I just season with Greek Seasoning during the initial browning.

After the meat browns some I add water along with a few bay leaves and a good amount of Worcestershire sauce. Just let them simmer and add water as needed until the meat is the way you want it. I will purposely let them run out of water a few times to let them brown even more. The extra browning just richens the gravy.

I picked a couple of different sweet peppers for this dish. I will hate when the cold weather stops our peppers production. Its nice to walk out the kitchen door and pick fresh peppers.

Meat is starting to get tender. Gravy is getting nice and rich too. Just added onion, diced garlic, and a few sprigs of freshly cut rosemary. I like to use celery too but was out of it. That's one thing I like about this dish, if you're out of something(other than meat and peppers obviously) don't sweat it. Just carry on and use what you have at hand.

Give it a stir, cover, bring back to a simmer then turn it off. You don't want to cook your peppers to mush. Serve over a bed of rice and open a cold one. Its simple and good.

Its ready for rice now. The residual heat has cooked the peppers just enough. You want the peppers to be done but not over done. You still want them to have some body to them and keep their color. Its just prettier that way.LOL

Rouse's grocery stores has boston butte twin packs this weekend for 1.17$ at that price they cheap with very little waste. We always stock up making 3 runs to a couple stores. They have a 2 pack limit. we make chops, country style ribs, small bone in roast, jumbalaya pieces like shown here etc. it's great cheap eats.

I do the same as you, but my variation is using pork, sirloin, & sausage in this. I also use "Tiger Sauce" in mine to spice it up. But its good either way you cook it.

That's the great thing about it Danny. There are so many ways to make it your own. I have thought of adding some stewed tomatoes to it just to add more color. I feel(you may be the same) that it doesn't require a lot of seasoning. I add some but I like to let the veggies work their magic. Surely don't want the seasoning to over ride the peppers. Some good smoked sausage would be really nice. I'll be trying that for sure. Thanks.
