Crockpot Pork and Green Chile Stew

Crockpot Pork and Green Chile Stew
Serving Size : 8

This was AMAZING. We served it with Drunken Beans (in a separate recipe listing). I will do the roasting of the chiles the night before -- just put them on a cookie sheet, run them under the broiler until black on all sides, and throw them in a paper grocery bag for an hour or so. Then peel, seed and chop. They are infinitely better than canned.

4 pounds lean pork shoulder
2 tbsp olive oil
4 medium potatoes -- quartered
1 ball garlic -- minced
1 can beer
1 tbsp cumin seed -- toasted and ground
1 tsp oregano
5 green chiles -- roasted and peeled
2 jalapenos -- sliced
4 large onions -- coarsely chopped
3 ribs celery -- coarsely chopped
juice of one lime (or substitute 1/4 cup red wine vinegar)

Sear meat in olive oil in the pan.
Place in cooker.
Chop chiles, add to cooker along with all other ingredients.
Set cooker to Low. Cook for 8-10 hours.

Stir in lime or vinegar. Garnish with salt, pepper, cilantro. Serve with warmed tortillas, shredded cheese (we use only VT cheddah in this neck of the woods), and salsa -- red or green.
