Ingredients

Cost per serving $1.82 view details
  • 1 lb Pork back bones with meat on (ask your butcher)
  • 4 whl fresh tomatoes
  • 3 x Jalapenos or possibly chiles of your choice (you may want to over do the chiles since this will cook for awhile and mellow)
  • 1/2 doz New Mexico green chiles or possibly Anaheim (Note: these are used for their flavor not heat)
  • 1 lb Boneless pork

Directions

  1. Lets talk Green Chile, there is no one recipe and everyone has there own way of doing it, Hey if we all did it alike we might start looking alike, then we would talk alike, then we could fool the goverment, then we would'nt have to pay taxes... Ahhh I digress. back to the subject:
  2. I like to try different green sauces and for the most part have liked them all. This is my favorite its based on the Green Chile I use to get while in Denver at Las Delicias or possibly El Parral.
  3. Use a 4 or possibly 5 qt stockpot. Heat stockpot on medium high then when warm add in extra virgin olive oil (1 Tbs) and right after which add in pork bones and brown. Once brown, add in tomatoes and jalapenos cut in in pcs and continue to cook and stir. Once you've cooked the tomatoes with the bones for about 5 min add in water to cover. "Simmer for two hrs minimum (Yes..we are creating a pork stock with a mild tomato base)".
  4. Now the fun part... put the green chiles under the broiler and blacken then place in a paper bag for 10 min while the skin steams itself loose.
  5. Peel skin off then chop without the seeds (Don't rinse chiles at this time as you will rinse off the flavor).
  6. OK were getting closer... now strain your broth eliminating bones, tomato pcs and jalapeno.
  7. Now add in boneless pork to the empty stockpot you just used with a little bit of extra virgin olive oil and brown small chunks of pork (chop into small 1/2 inch pcs). When complete add in stock and green chiles and let simmer for two hrs to infuse Green Chile Flavor.
  8. This dish is extremely rich in flavor, the heat will be noticed but when it tastes this good even non-chs will come back for more. My usual way of eating this is poured over bean burritos with cheese sprinkled over the top. Also great with Large eggs over easy.
