EXCELLENT! I only had hock so threw in 3 chorizo sausages for first boil plus some jalapenos. Chilled overnight to remove excess fat and chopped up meat plus added some frozen italian meatballs with the cabbage, rutabaga and onion. Used 29 oz can hominy and 19 oz can red kidney. The jalapeno and chorizo added a nice bite and the entire family loved this hearty soup. Meegwetch
