Fill cast iron pot with 1/3 water add everyone up to the carrots. Bring to a simmer and then add the chorizo. Add the meat and cook for about 1 hours. Add the remaining potatoes-chicken stock and cook about 2-2/12hours . Add the veggies and some beef stock. Cook 2-3 hours and season as you like. Add the seasoning to taste. Continue to simmer. The entire cook should be about 12 hours, add additional beef stock as needed. This should be really thck your spoon should be able to stand up in it. You can add salt/pepper as needed, serve topped with cilantro, sour cream and cheese.

This is a great use of left over BBQ (ribs, pork, brisket, chicken, ...) Basically its up to you what you add, this needs to cook a long time, its kind of a kitchen synch recipe. Creates a rib sticking stew that will warm you up. Cook and then freeze the leftovers for a fall/winter night.

Excellent
