Secret Illuminati Colorado Green Chile image

Enjoy this recipe of 13 ingredients and 13 steps to sheer bliss! With a proper pantry and pork on sale and green chile's out of the yard/freezer not only is this an inexpensive dish and very versatile but a sure crowd pleaser! This recipe is FOOLPROOF and is great on everything or just as is. PLEASE feel free to take what I have learned and share with family and friends. A few special notes. 1st off you will want to start this in a cast iron dutch oven and then transfer into crock-pot or slow cooker of your choice and allow to finish. This is not required but really does make this dish. I did this recipe side by side browning pork in one batch and the taste is very different! (MUCH, MUCH deeper and richer) I also do not use flour to brown pork nor do I use corn starch but if you feel it necessary its your recipe now!
