Slow Cooker Green Chili Pork

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Slow Cooker Green Chili Pork.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven's broiler and positioning an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.

2. Step 2

   To make cleanup a breeze, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

3. Step 3

   Next, take your halved and seeded Hatch chile peppers and place them cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

4. Step 4

   Broil these vibrant peppers for about 5 to 8 minutes, or until their skins are beautifully blackened and blistered.

5. Step 5

   Once they’re done, transfer the peppers to a large bowl and cover it tightly with plastic wrap.

6. Step 6

   This steaming process will help loosen the skins, so let them sit for about 20 minutes.

7. Step 7

   After steaming, carefully peel off the skins, chop the peppers into small pieces, and set them aside.

8. Step 8

   Now, let’s prepare the pork.

9. Step 9

   In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the cubed pork with flour, 2 tablespoons of salt, and 2 tablespoons of black pepper.

10. Step 10

    Seal the bag and give it a good shake to ensure the pork is evenly coated.

11. Step 11

    Heat some vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat, then add the coated pork.

12. Step 12

    Cook it, stirring frequently, until it’s nicely browned, which should take about 5 to 7 minutes.

13. Step 13

    Once browned, transfer the pork to a slow cooker.

14. Step 14

    In the slow cooker, add the chopped peppers along with chicken stock, diced tomatoes with green chiles, chopped onion, cumin, the remaining tablespoon of salt, the remaining tablespoon of black pepper, and minced garlic.

15. Step 15

    Give everything a good stir to combine all those delicious flavors.

16. Step 16

    Cover the slow cooker and let it work its magic.

17. Step 17

    You can choose to cook on Low for 6 hours or on High for 4 hours, until the pork is tender and the flavors have melded together beautifully.
