Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless pork shoulder
- 1 large yellow onion
- 4 large garlic cloves
- 30 ounces hominy
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup red chile sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 4 sliced radishes
- 2 sliced into wedges lime
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 bag tortilla chips
Instructions
Cut the boneless pork shoulder into 2-inch chunks and trim off excess fat.
Peel and dice the onion into small pieces.
Mince the garlic cloves.
Drain and rinse the can of hominy.
In the crock pot, combine the pork shoulder, diced onion, minced garlic, hominy, chicken broth, red chile sauce, oregano, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and the bay leaf.
Stir gently to distribute the ingredients evenly.
Place the lid on the crock pot and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours, until the pork is tender and shreds easily with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the bay leaf and shred the pork directly in the crock pot using two forks.
Taste the posole and adjust seasoning with additional salt or spices, if needed.
Serve the posole hot, garnished with shredded cabbage, sliced radishes, lime wedges, fresh cilantro, and tortilla chips on the side.
