Personal Notes:
This recipe comes from my dads' sister Anita. The one thing I learned from each of my dad's siblings is the small variations of this recipe. I can picture them all sitting around the table talking quietly of course as to what was in the actual recipe. I know my father's (Rudy) version is, for the most part, the same but with the addition of beef ribs and pork. My mother uses salt pork. His brother Julio and Alex had their touch to this recipe also.
One day a summit will be called, and God will have to deal with these kids.
