My fake-assoulet was better tonight. I added some more seasoning, garlic, carrot, tomato and white wine. Much better.

It's odd. It's beans with pork sausage, chicken thighs and bacon, yet it tastes like beef gravy? Nom nom nom!

That sounds like a really good cassoulet! I made one for my (rather suspicious of new dishes) husband recently - pretty much what you cooked - and I used strong elderberry wine instead of white wine. And a tin of chopped tomatoes. Long slow cooking is vital, and the basic combo of sausage, other-meat, and beans.

And its better day after day!

I find it odd how it's a peasant meal, but made with duck. You must have to kill your own duck.
