Cuban Meat Stew – Ropa Vieja

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Being Puerto Rican descent, I found the flavors in this stew on point That particular Goya sazon packet is a must - the culantro y achiote. used our elk stew meat in this and it was great. serve over rice. Unfortunately, where I live it is hard to find the sofrito and that particular sazon packet- requires special trips - so I did with out the sofrito but have lots of the sazon on hand and I found it still to be delicious.

    Cuban Meat Stew (Ropa Vieja),This meat stew is delicious and easy. A nice change of pace, and it makes the house smell so good. Serve with rice and a salad, or crusty bread. From a Goya cookbook–Best of the Americas-Carribean.,Being Puerto Rican descent, I found the flavors in this stew on point That particular Goya sazon packet is a must – the culantro y achiote. used our elk stew meat in this and it was great. serve over rice. Unfortunately, where I live it is hard to find the sofrito and that particular sazon packet- requires special trips – so I did with out the sofrito but have lots of the sazon on hand and I found it still to be delicious.,This was delicious! Absolutely a keeper! I love olives so I will put more olives in the next time I make this. Also will increase the seasoning for my own taste.However it is still so so good as written for anyone wanting to try this for the first time. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe-it’s going in the permanent file!
