3-4 cups of roasted, peeled, deveined and seeded Hatch green chiles, roughly chopped.

2 lbs. Pork loin or shoulder, cubed bite sized, dusted with 1 tablespoon cumin powder, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper.

1 small onion, peeled and sliced.

3-4 cloves garlic, smashed and chopped.

1 bottle Pale Ale (can substitute chix stock)

1 jar Herdez salsa verde (optional)

1 large can White Hominy (can substitute pinto beans, or nothing at all)



Brown season pork in canola oil, in high side pot, medium high heat.
Add onions and garlic, saute until onions are limp, do not brown onions.
Add green chile, continue to saute for a few minutes more.
Add beer. (some folks add chicken stock, I do beer)
Add green salsa (purely optional - used to cut the heat so I don't blow the kids up. If salsa not added, might need to throw some more beer in.)

Cover, let simmer for 20-30 minutes.
Add drained, rinsed Hominy or beans (or nothing), simmer covered additional 20-30 minutes.

Adjust S&P to taste.

Serve with warm flour tortillas.
