Serves: 7-8 large (at least 2 cup) servings
Ingredients
  • 1 ½ tablespoons vegetable (soybean) oil or corn oil
  • 2 pounds boneless pork loin chops, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 5-6 cups reduced sodium chicken broth
  • 2 cups finely chopped onion
  • 4-5 large garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1 jar (16 oz.) salsa verde (green chili salsa)
  • 2 large poblano peppers, seeded and chopped
  • 2 cans (4 to 4.5 oz. each) chopped green chilies, undrained
  • 2 cans (15.5 oz. each) white or golden hominy, rinsed and drained
  • 2 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
  • ½ to ¾ teaspoon ground ancho chili pepper
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons flour

Instructions
  1. Heat oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add one half of the pork cubes and cook, browning on all sides and stirring frequently, about 7-9 minutes. Repeat with remaining half of pork cubes. Place browned pork cubes in 5-6 quart slow cooker pot along with broth, onions, garlic, poblanos, green chilies, hominy, cumin, ancho chili pepper, oregano, cloves, black and red pepper. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 6 ½ hours. Remove ½ cup chili liquid to a glass bowl and add flour; stir to make a paste. Add this paste back to chili and stir well. Add beans and stir. Cook another 30-45 minutes, until chili is thickened slightly. Stir in cilantro. Serve with desired garnishes and toppings.
