Crock Pot Chile Verde

"I wanted to come up with a version of Chile Verde that was perfect for my family and after trying several recipes I came up with this one that we all love. I like to serve this over Chef #230609 's Recipe #147335 with flour tortillas from my little neighborhood store called Tortillas de las Americanas."

  1. This is absolutely delicious--my husband says it's one of his favorite meals these days. I use pork neckbones instead of the pork loin and cook it on the stove rather than the crock pot, but otherwise I follow the recipe exactly. I like to serve it with jalapeno cornbread. Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. Terrific flavors! Everyone at the potluck was surprised that a gringo made it! I prepared as described but used a full bottle of Negra Modelo. Way yummy!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I grew up in Tucson but moved to Colorado in 1989 and live in a household with my husband, Dad, daughter and 3-year old twin granddaughters. Our 8-year old grandson spends 2 nights a week with us. All of that adds up to often difficult menu ideas to met everyone's tastes. Zaar is very addicting and I love trying the recipes I find here. I like to find recipes of people that I see are still active on Zaar and love it when I hear back from the Chef after I review the recipe. Everytime someone reviews one of my recipes, I like to find one of theirs to make and review as quickly as possible. It's a way for me to find great chefs I don't know yet too! My husband has high blood sugar so we try to watch our carbs, but it is not easy because we love them so much! I was diagnosed with brain tumors in 2005 and so far have had 5 surgeries that have left my eyelid droopy. I hope to have a surgery that will correct that soon!! There is still one tumor they have not removed but my wonderful doctor James Garrity at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN says they will leave it alone until or if it ever causes problems!
