  • A little bit of vinegar

  • Tabasco sauce

Instructions

  1. 1
    Three days before serving, place the pork ribs in a large stock pot, and cover them thoroughly with salt. Cut off one of the salted ribs, place in a plastic bag, and set aside in the fridge. Cover the stockpot containing the remaining ribs, and store it in the fridge.
  2. 2
    One day before serving, remove the stockpot with the ribs from the fridge. Start the process of withdrawing the excess salt, soaking the ribs in cold water and changing the water three times in intervals of 6 hours. Each time you change the water, return the covered stockpot with water and ribs back to the fridge. After the third and last time, fill again the stockpot with the ribs and water and leave it in the fridge until the time to start the cooking process.
  3. 3
    On the day of cooking and serving, cut the filet mignon into 1-inch cubes. Slice the smoked sausage as thick as you wish. Cut the bacon into small cubes. Cut the ham steak into 1-inch cubes. Cut the smoked pork chops into small pieces. Do not cast away the bone yet; leave some meat on it to be cooked altogether. If you are also using jerked beef, cut the pieces proportionally to the rest of the meat. If any part of the meat has bones, leave part of the meat on the bones to be cooked altogether.
