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.

GREEN CHILI WITH PORK AND ROASTED CHILES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 400 F. When oven is hot, roast the green chiles until charred on all sides. Alternatively, use the oven's broiler to char the chiles, turning so all sides are blackened (or char on the open flame of a gas stove, using tongs to turn).
• Cover chiles with foil and allow them to steam and cool down for at least 15 minutes.
• Pull off chile stems, scrape off and remove peels, remove seeds, and chop into small pieces. Set chiles aside.
• Peel and thinly slice onion .
• In a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the lard on medium. When the lard melts, add onions, chiles, and salt. Stir well and cook until onions are soft, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer the vegetables to a bowl, leaving as much fat in pot as possible.
• Brown pork pieces, working in single layer batches. Repeat process until all pieces are browned. Remove from pot and set aside.
• Add flour to remaining fat that's left in the pot and stir rapidly.
• Keep stirring until flour smells cooked, about 3 minutes.
• Add beer, stir, and scrape up any brown bits from bottom of pot. The mixture should thicken up fairly quickly.
• Add broth and return pork and vegetables to the pot. Everything should be covered by liquid - add more broth or water if necessary.
• Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, and cook, covered, until the pork is extremely tender, about 1 hour.
• If you like a thicker texture, uncover the pot and cook further. Taste for salt and add more if needed.

• When done (after 3 hours of cooking), fish the pork out of the crockpot and set aside to cool for 15 minutes. Take 3 cups of the broth from the crockpot and set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the onion mixture, spices, tomatoes, and all the green chiles (including pureed).
• Gradually add the broth to the flour, stirring constantly to ensure no lumps. Then pour the flour mixture into the crockpot gradually, stirring constantly to blend in.
