Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F).

Melt butter in a large stew pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef and pork cubes in batches until nicely seared on all sides. Remove meat and set aside.

Return the browned meat to the pot. Add the water, salt, allspice berries, and bay leaves. The liquid should just cover the meat and vegetables.
💡 Sfaturi Profesioniste: If using a pan for browning, rinse it with the water and add it to the pot to capture any flavorful browned bits. - 5
Cover the pot tightly with a lid or foil. Place in the preheated oven and cook for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is very tender.
💡 Sfaturi Profesioniste: If the stew appears to be drying out during cooking, add a little more water. If the meat starts to burn, cover with foil. - 6
Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving. Discard bay leaves and allspice berries if desired.
