Green chili or Chili Verde is a favorite in the southwest, especially in New Mexico where the Hatch Green chilies are second to none. During the harvest season in the late summer, early fall, the chilies are picked and roasted in large metal cages that are turned over open fires. This is a classic Colorado-style green chili - plenty of green chiles, tomatoes, some tomatillos, and thickened with flour. This one has a really nice, well-rounded flavor.
Steps to make Mike's Green Chili Pork Burritos:
- Simmer pork roast in a crock pot for 6 to 8 hours in beef or chicken broth.
- Pull pork meat from broth and allow to cool slightly. Strain broth of any floating fats.
- Fine shread pork meat with forks and disgard any fat or anything unsightly.
- Reserve 1 cup broth for the shreadded chicken for burritos. Reserve the rest of the stock and 1 pound shreadded pork to make a healthy pork stew. Or, a Green Chili Stew If interested, see steps 13 thru 15.
- Chop all vegetables for your refried beans. You'll leave these raw as they'll act as a crispy Pico de Gallo within your burritos.
- Use a refried bean product like Rosarita, GOYA or Old Elpaso. They're all great brands.
- Heat beans and mix with your crispy vegetables.
- Fry pulled pork for burritos covered in 1 cup broth, 1 packet Old Elpaso Taco Seasoning, 1 - 4 oz can of green chilies and 1/2 cup of your favorite green salsa. Steam well. Stir occasionally.
- Smear heated refried bean mixture on warm tortilla and add hot seasoned fried shreadded pork meat. All ingredients should be fully heated. Or, at room temp [i.e., cheeses, tortillas] before construction and placing in Panini Press or grilling.
- Add whatever fillers you'd like before wrapping up tortillas tightly.
- Place burritos in hot press until scored and cheese has melted.
- Serve burritos hot with green salsa, sour cream, Mexican 3 cheese, lettuce and tomatoes & Avacado slices. Also, a side of Green Chili Stew. Enjoy!
- You're already half way there if interested in making the pork stew. Just add whatever vegetables you have on hand, [i.e., chopped onions, potatoes, carrots, celery, bell peppers, tomatoes, cilantro, etc., a McCormick Beef Stew packet [a great cheater] and additional herbs & spices]
- Simmer stew for a few more hours in your same crock pot until vegetables have softened. You can also add a pint of Hatch Green Chili to your stew for an extra kick. It's always a delicious option!
- Serve your stew with fresh bread or warm flour tortillas. Enjoy!
Want a good green chili for smothering burritos and eggs? With its shredded pork and thick consistency, this one's a great choice. Try a large can of green enchilada sauce instead of tomatillos if you find yourself short of time and energy. Serve over burritos and garnish with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream. This is our families favorite green chili to use in burritos and enchiladas.
