Put all meat and the chiles in a stew kettle in enough boiling water to cover, and cook for 2 to 2 and 1/2 hours. Add potatoes, tomatoes, and onions, and cook for about half an hour before adding the corn and peas. The oysters should be added about 15 minutes before the stew is removed from the stove, and may be left out entirely. Total cooking time about four hours.
