    Posted by: GrandmaCookN

    List of Ingredients




    3 tablespoons veg. oil
    3 pounds boneless pork, cubed
    3 cloves garlic, minced
    1 (15 oz) cans white or yellow hominy, drained.
    4 to 5 cups of water
    2 (4 oz.) cans diced green chilies, undrained
    1 (10 oz.) can red enchilada sauce, mild or hot
    1 (16 oz.) can diced tomatoes with green chilies
    1 (14 oz.) can taco sauce
    1 bay leaf ( I always omit)
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon cumin
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon oregano

    Recipe



    1. Heat oil in a 6-quart stockpot, add pork, onions and garlic and cook until pork is browned. Drain excess grease.
    2. Add hominy and 4 cups water. Add chilies, enchilada sauce, tomatoes, taco sauce, salt, pepper, and oregano, and cook over low to med. heat about 2 hours, stirring occasionally. After 2 hours, add remaining 1 cup water if needed. Adjust seasonings if desired,(I added more cumin ) and simmer 2 to 3 hours longer.
    Serves 10 to 13

    Tips from test kitchen;
    Serve hot with corn chips, warm flour tortillas or corn bread. Try a lean cut of pork, like center-cut loin, to reduce the fat.
