The Best Green Chile Pork Ever Recipes

GREEN PORK CHILI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, toss the onions, tomatillos, jalapenos, and garlic with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and spread on a baking sheet. Roast until soft and starting to brown, about 20 to 30 minutes, stirring twice during roasting.
• Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the oil and heat. Brown the pork, in batches, until well-browned. When browned, add all of the pork back to the pan and cover with chicken stock. Add the roasted vegetables, cover the pan and place in the oven. Cook until the pork is very tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
• While pork is cooking, place the cilantro in a food processor. Add 2 tablespoons of water and puree. Remove the pork from the oven and stir in the cilantro puree. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Serve with warm flour tortillas.

Steps:

• For the marinade: Mix pineapple juice, olive oil, soy sauce, jerk seasoning, molasses, granulated onion, jalapenos and poblano together in a gallon resealable plastic bag. Add tenderized pork and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to 24 hours.
• For the sandwiches: Mix mayo and Jamaican relish in a bowl.
• Preheat a flat top or griddle on medium-high heat and put on pork to get a good sear, about 2 minutes. Flip and sear the other side, 2 minutes. Don't forget to put some of the peppers from the marinade and the pineapple on to caramelize, 2 to 3 minutes. Melt Swiss cheese on pork!
• Spread buns with Jamaican mayo on tops and bottoms, then add pork and Swiss cheese, caramelized pineapple and peppers and arugula. Close buns for green chile pork sandwiches!

COLORADO GREEN CHILI (CHILE VERDE)

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Season the pork with salt and pepper to taste, then place into the hot oil. Cook until golden brown on all sides, about 7 minutes. Once browned, remove the pork and set aside. Reduce heat to medium, and stir in the onion and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Return the pork to the pot, and stir in the green chiles, diced tomatoes with juice, tomatillo salsa, and chicken broth. Season with oregano and clove. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes.
• After 20 minutes, remove 2 cups of the soup (ensure there are no pork cubes in it), and pour into a blender. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree until smooth, then pour back into the cooking pot. This will create a thicker texture for your chili and will eliminate some of the chunky bits of chiles. Continue to simmer, stirring occasionally until the pork is very tender, at least 35 minutes more.

COLORADO GREEN CHILE WITH PORK

Steps:

• Put the pork roast in a covered casserol and roast at 275 for about 2 or 3 hours until done using your meat thermometer to check. I will often put it in frozen - no real need to thaw it first. As long as the pork is cooked through, it's fine. I don't even put any water in the dish, but you can put a half inch of water if you want to, it won't hurt the roast. When done, remove from oven and let cool. Save the juice! When cool enough to handle, dice the pork and throw away the fatty parts. Save the bone if any.
• In a very large stock pot (at least 2 1/2 gallon capacity), add diced pork and juice from the pork and sprinkle with flour - tossing to coat. Cook on medium low until it gets a little sticky from the flour. Add remaining ingredients and bones. Simmer at least one hour - stirring occaisionally. Do not let the bottom burn. If it seems too thick add water or chicken broth. Remove the bone.
• I use this for so many things! I smother my burritos, huevos, or eat like a soup with tortillas. I also pour it over burgers (see Gourmet Green Chile Burgers).
