Feijoada is a hearty and flavorful meat stew that is considered the national dish of Brazil. It originated in Rio de Janeiro and is typically made with black beans, pork cuts like bacon, sausage, and various parts of the pig, such as ears, tail, and feet. The meats are slow-cooked with onions, garlic, and spices until they become tender and flavorful. Feijoada is traditionally served with rice, collard greens, farofa, and orange slices to balance the richness of the dish.
