Saturday Chili Verde

in Pork
I had to make a quick, unexpected trip to Idaho to see my hospitalized grandmother. Family said she wasn't doing well and I should come up before it was too late. A couple of days later, she was doing much better, so much so, that she went home yesterday. Anyway, the temperature in Idaho was so much colder than Vegas (obviously), that all I could think about making was something warm.
I have never attempted Chili Verde, so why not. Here it goes.
A bunch of veggies went on to roast.
Next, cut up some pork and put it in a Dutch oven to warm up and get happy. Seasoned with salt and pepper.
Now the veggie are cool enough to handle. I took the skin off the peppers and de-seeded them. Threw everything into the blender with a little chicken stock.
So far so good.
Pork has been browned and the sauce with some other spices added. Back on the grill to braise the pork.
We'll see how it is in a few hours.

Your ratio of green chiles to tomatillos is 180º out from mine.
Will have to try it this way soon.___________"When small men begin to cast big shadows, it means that the sun is about to set."

@Jupiter Jim there really wasn't a whole lot. I used about a tablespoon of each: New Mexico chili powder, cumin and oregano.Jupiter Jim said:Looks awesome! what were the spices and amounts>Las Vegas, NV -

@Battleborn was that a pork shoulder/butt roast? Wife loves her some chile verde. We have a lot of mom and pop mexican places here that really do a good job on chili verde so I never make it. Going to have to change that.Midland, TX XLBGE

Never made it, but after seeing yours, I gotta try it. Dang, it looks good.

@Hook_emHornsfan_74 the recipe called for 5 lbs of pork butt. I happened to use country style ribs because I had it is the freezer.Hook_emHornsfan_74 said:@Battleborn was that a pork shoulder/butt roast? Wife loves her some chile verde.

I think this cook has become my favorite thing to make now. There are so many different things one can do to change it up for their taste.Las Vegas, NV -
