Heat oil over medium high heat, in the bottom of a large dutch oven or soup pot with a lid.
Brown the pork, add onion, garlic and bell pepper. Saute for a few minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften. Add tomatoes then crush them with your hands or a potato masher or spoon. Add remaining ingredients, except the parsley. Stir to combine.
Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium low. Cover and cook for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally. It should be barely simmering. After two hours, remove the lid, add the parsley.
Taste and adjust seasonings if desired. Simmer for about 30-45 minutes, until the mixture has thickened.
Serve.
