Ingredients

• Servings: 8

• 1 tablespoon pepper
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1 tablespoon dried rosemary, crumbled
• 1 tablespoon summer savory

Recipe

• 4 reduce heat as low as possible and simmer all day, 8-10 hours.
• 5 check occasionally; do not add additional water unless absolutely necessary.
• 6 when the meat is so tender it is falling apart, and there is only a small amount of liquid left in the pan, it is ready.
