Heres my version, y'all figure oout how to make it easier...
I make a salsa verde with roasted tomatillos, a serrano pepper, garlic and cilantro. Pureed in a blender. 2 cups will do
I peel about 8 whole tomatoes, take out the seeds.
I get me a 6 lb pork shoulder, take it off the bone, and dice it into 2 inch cubes. I cut the bone into 3 pieces.
I heat a large enameled cast iron dutch oven to high, I add some oil, season the pork generously with S and P and then I sear the pork in small batches (too much and it steams and steamed meat is gross) until browned all over. When I'm done with the last batch, I usually have a bunch of browned up bits stuck to the bottom of the pot. Thats awesome. Tend to those and make sure they dont burn thoughout the process. Pour in some chicken stock (I make my own) and scrape up all the bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. I then add all the pork, the bones, and add more chicken stock until everything is covered by about an inch. I season the concoction to taste and add garlic powder to taste. I bring the whole mess to a simmer and then turn it WAY donw so it barely bubbles. Seriously, you could boil any meat to tenderness but when the temp is too hot, you leech out the meats natural juices as it cooks and then you get tender, but lame and dry meat. Keep it at barely a bubble for a couple hours. Skim the scum and stuff that rises during this time. After two hours, remove the meat, and strain the liquid through a fine mesh sieve (to get rid of any nasties) into another pot or bowl or whatever. but dont spill it. Its liquid gold at this point. Put the pork back in, re add the liquid, add your tomato florets (thats what a peeled, gutted, quartered tomato piece is called) your salsa verde and about 10 roasted peeled and sliced hatch green chilis (if it aint hatch season use poblanos.I cant stress enough the importance of roasting and peeling your own chilis for this recipe, or go to the swap meat and buy them roasted and peeled, but fresh is EVERYTHING). Add more if you like it hotter, hell add a can of diced green chilis too, just make sure its chilitastic. Oh, yeah, to mellow the burn remove the seeds. To kill your ********, dont. Simmer at the same temp for another 45 minutes or so to allow the flavors to marry. Its done when the pork falls the hell apart when you pull it out of the liquid. Serve in bowls with fresh flour tortillas and remember the day you sent my soul to hell you bastards.
