Wash tripe in hot water and then boil with salt in three quarts of water for two to three hours or until tripe is tender. In separate saucepan, cook one pound pork knuckles in water for one hour. In another saucepan, blend melted butter, garlic, cumin, black pepper, chili powder and oregano and saute for two to three minutes. Combine tripe, pork knuckles and the broth from both pans with the spices and one can of hominy. Bring to a boil and boil for five minutes. Serve with tortillas.

Taste very good. Tool the advice of the other post and didn't use butter or all the pans. Still very good.

Liked the receipe becuase it had pork knuckles and the seasonings I was looking for. Would not use the butter next time. Also did not use all the pans, etc. Just boiled the tripe alone for about 10 minutes, dumped water. Then boiled tripe and knuckles together for a while and then added seasonings and cooked till tripe was tender. Much simpler......Portwine
