Ingredients

  • 5 lb. pigs feet, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 lb. pigs ears, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 lb. pigs tails, cut into 1-inch pieces (optional)
  • 1 small jar diced pimientos
  • 3 c. vinegar or more to taste
  • 3 lemons, quartered and seeded
  • 1 c. sweet pickle or more to taste
  • red pepper, cut up (amount to taste)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Tabasco sauce to taste

Method

  • Cook the feet with water (to cover), salt, pepper and 1 cup vinegar for approximately 30 minutes.
  • Then add all other ingredients and cook until all meats are cooked to the degree of doneness desired.
  • Serves a crowd and is eaten with a fork as the feet will mostly cook off the bones.
  • This is extremely good served with Hoppin' Jack (black-eyed peas, rice and bacon ends), greens, candied yams, salad and corn bread.
