- Cut 5 lbs pork shoulder into 1+" cubes and toss well in your seasoned flour.
- Brown pork well in an oversized skillet with a minimal amount of oil.
- About 1/3 cup or, as little as possible.
- Don't be afraid of any additional flour not attached to your pork cubes ending up in your skillet.
- It will serve you well as a thickener.
- Reserve your leftover seasoned flour just in case you need it later for additional thickening.
- After pork is sufficiently browned, add 1 beer, 1/2 to 3/4 box chicken broth, 1 bucket Hatch Green Chilies, 1/4 of all your vegetables, except potatoes herbs and spices to your simmer.
- Simmer for 45 minutes - adding additional broth as needed.
- This is a layered dish.
- Add your remaining vegetables except potatoes or anything that's listed as, "reserves" and simmer for up to 2 hours adding broth and beer as needed.
- Simmer until your pork is easy to chew when you taste test it.
- Authors Note: If your dish tastes a bit acidic due to the chilies, tomatillos and Rotel tomatoes - add a 1/2 teaspoon of Baking Soda while your dish is on a steady simmer.
- It'll foam up for a second but don't worry - she'll settle right down.
- Add additional 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda if still needed.
- Once your pork is falling apart, you'll know you're ready for these last few steps.
- After approximately 2+ hours of simmering, add 4 diced potatoes and additional broth/beer if needed.
- Only add just enough additional fluids you'll need to boil potatoes.
- Simmer your mixture for 20 to 30 minutes - 1/2 covered to steam your potatoes and then, 1/2 uncovered to thicken until your spuds are fully softened.
- To thicken your dish even further, lightly sprinkle your leftover flour over the top and sti
- In the last 5 minutes of cooking your potatoes, add your remaining reserved halves.
- 1 bucket Hatch Chilies and fresh cilantro.
- If you thin this recipe out with some additional stock and/or beer, it could easily be served as a thinner stew.
- Fluffy flour tortillas work best with a thinner broth - regular tortillas for thick.
- Garnish with fresh or dried cilantro or parsley and Mexican 3 Cheese to tame the heat for your guests.
- I assure you, no other condiments are needed!
