    It very slightly remember a traditional meal here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locro You mix white corn, beans, pumpkin and whatever piece of meat you can grab, with some extra vegetables, bones more meat, sausage and whatever that is edible, and cook it for a long time (but usually less than a day), but it's always better the next day.

    Thinking about it, I'd add an option to double the amount of some ingredients. For example some people like no onion, but others like a lot of onion.

    Edit: In case you are curious, recipe by "Paulina Cocina" that usually has easy and tasty recipes (in Spanish) https://www.paulinacocina.net/receta-de-locro-argentino/9829

    The soup stone is missing. My grandpa was from Vilnius which was part of Poland when he left. They always had soup on the stove every day all day and one of the things in it was always a stone to hold something (herbs?) at the bottom. It was such a part of the family that they weren't sure who was going to inherit the stone - it went to the oldest son.

    Whenever I've had it from a Ukrainian place (labeled with the same name) it's been too sweet.

    I remember back in Siberia, USSR my parents were making bigos often enough when I was a kid. Had no idea it was polish food. We have no Poles in our ancestry

      The best one is when you visit your grandmother and you have it in bread (bigos w chlebku) the same way as Żurek w chlebku
