When I was a very young girl (about age 9-10) I went to a Holy Ghost Festival at a local Catholic church with neighbors. The meal served was a Portuguese one. It was made with slow oven cooked chuck roast, some tomato sauce (or tomato juice?) and pickling spices. The meat was fork tender and served up onto plates with some sliced french bread soaked in the juices with fresh peppermint leaves served from another large pan that was also baked.
Our local church is looking for a main meat dish (of course grass fed, no antibiotics, and no steroids) to serve at a late spring dinner gathering.
Would you happen to know the actual name of this dish?... from my failing memory bank from decades ago it was called something like soupage.
If anyone knows the name and/or has a recipe, please let me know. I can't eat red meat, though others in the church can. This would be a very simple meal to serve them, cost effective, tasty and very different. A nice mixed green salad on the side would be a nice compliment, just as was served to me as a child.
Everyone is sick of tri-tip church dinners!
