Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef chuck roast
• 1 pound chorizo sausage (Portuguese preferred)
• 10 cups water
• 1 cup red wine
• 2 large onions, chopped
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 bay leaves
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon ground allspice
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 medium green cabbage, cut into wedges
• 1 loaf crusty bread (such as Portuguese pops or French bread)

Directions

Step 1

In a large stockpot or Dutch oven, add the beef chuck roast and chorizo sausage. Cover with water and red wine.

Step 2

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, skimming any foam that rises to the surface.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low and add the chopped onions, minced garlic, bay leaves, ground cinnamon, ground allspice, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well.

Step 4

Cover the pot and let the soup simmer gently for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 5

After 2 hours, remove the chorizo sausage from the pot, slice it into rounds, and return the slices to the soup.

Step 6

Add the cabbage wedges into the pot and continue simmering for another hour or until the cabbage is tender.

Step 7

Taste the broth and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Step 8

To serve, place thick slices of crusty bread in bowls and ladle the hot soup over the bread, ensuring each bowl gets a mix of beef, chorizo, cabbage, and broth.

Step 9

Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
