I've made several others chili verde recipes, all of which were good, but I changed so many things to suit our own taste (and time constraints) that I figured I'd post my version. Since I roast the poblanos on the grill, I started browning the pork there too, saves time and makes less of a mess than doing it in the pot. Hope you enjoy!
