Having learned about this game right now, this is my idea to set up a random deck (so not field-tested, and maybe I’m misunderstanding):
Separate into 4 piles of 12 cards, according to suit, face down.
Another person moves the piles about like in 3-card Monty until no one knows where each suit is.
Randomly choose 3 piles to remove 2, 2, and 4 cards. Or always remove 4 from the first, 2 each from the next ones, from left to right or by whatever convention.

Shuffle together remaining piles, deal.
