Directions

Step 1
Begin by cubing the beef and pork, then season with about half of adobo seasoning and cumin.
Step 2
Using a food processor, finely chop onions and garlic, set aside. Dice red pepper, orange pepper, yellow pepper, onions, garlic, green olives, pickled vegetables, capers, and cilantro in a food processor; place together in a bowl. You may have to chop vegetables in batches.
Step 3
Heat oil in a large pot over high heat, add onions and garlic and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
Add diced red pepper, orange pepper, yellow pepper, olives, pickled vegetables, capers, and cilantro, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 5
Pour in wine; cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add beef and pork and stir well to combine. Stir in chicken broth; season to taste with salt.
Step 6
Bring the mixture to a boil; then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until well reduced, stirring occasionally, about 5 hours. After the first 2 hours, taste and add remaining cumin and adobo seasoning as needed.
