How to Make Tomatillo Pork Braise with Pickled Chiles

1. Layer the Base Ingredients

Layer the tomatillos, garlic, and jalapeños in your slow-cooker. Add half of the cilantro and sprinkle 1.5 teaspoons of salt over the top.

2. Prepare and Add Pork

Toss the pork shoulder cubes with Worcestershire sauce until well coated. Add the pork to the slow-cooker, nestling it among the tomatillo mixture.

3. Cook

Set your slow-cooker to high and let the ingredients cook for about 6 hours. Alternatively, oven-braise in a covered pot at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 2.5 to 3 hours.

4. Blend Sauce and Add Beans

Remove the pork from the slow-cooker or pot and blend the sauce with the rest of the cilantro until smooth. Return the pork, stir in the drained beans, and let everything warm through. Adjust seasoning with salt and sugar if needed.
