yeah! my grandmother also put beans and bacon in the tripe, In Italy, unfortunately, the tripe can not homemade due the Sanity laws.. (I'm sorry for my approximate english)
You're English is fine, Money. Putting pancetta and beans in the tripe helps mask the smell (which I don't mind anyway).
I found this recipe on Youtube a few months ago. It's very similar to my mother's. Her people came from Stigliano, which is in Matera, Basilicata. But be careful watching, it will make you hungry!
