Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Slow Cooker Pork Pozole.
Step 1
Start by heating a splash of canola oil in a skillet over high heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in the cubed pork and cook it, stirring often, until it’s beautifully browned on all sides—this should take about five minutes.
Step 3
Once the pork is perfectly seared, transfer it to a cozy 4-quart slow cooker.
Step 4
Now, pour the rich enchilada sauce over the pork, letting it soak in all that flavor.
Step 5
Next, add in the drained hominy, sliced onion, diced green chilies, minced garlic, a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little kick, and a sprinkle of dried oregano for that aromatic touch.
Step 6
To ensure everything cooks together nicely, pour in enough water to cover all the ingredients.
Step 7
With everything in the slow cooker, cover it up and let it work its magic on High for six to seven hours, or until the pork is tender and ready to melt in your mouth.
Step 8
When the time is up, stir in some freshly chopped cilantro and a dash of salt to brighten the flavors.
Step 9
Finally, reduce the heat to Low and let it simmer for an additional 30 minutes, allowing all those delicious ingredients to meld together.
Step 10
Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen as you prepare to serve this hearty dish!.
