Ingredients

How to Make Holy Chipotle Flamin’ Posole

  1. Place the pork roast in a covered container with one-half can of Coca-Cola and two tablespoons of HOLY CHIPOTLE! Marinade & Cooking Sauce.

  2. Marinate the pork in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hours or overnight.

  3. Transfer the pork and marinade to a slow cooker.

  4. Cook on low for 4 to 6 hours. Watch the liquid level and add water when needed.

  5. When the pork is tender enough to shred, remove it from the slow cooker.

  6. Season the cooked pork with salt to taste. Place it in a separate covered container and refrigerate it while the posole cooks.

  7. Add the white corn posole and water to the slow cooker. Cook for 2 hours.

  8. Add the sautéed onion and garlic.

  9. Continue cooking the posole for approximately 4 hours, or until the kernels have fully opened. Do not add salt to the posole before it has opened.

  10. Return the cooked pork to the slow cooker.

  11. Simmer the pork and posole together for approximately 15 minutes, until everything is hot and the flavors have combined.

  12. Garnish with fresh lime and minced garlic if desired, then serve.

Tips for Making Slow Cooker Posole

Plan ahead for this recipe. The pork requires several hours of marinating followed by 4 to 6 hours in the slow cooker. The white corn posole then requires approximately 6 additional hours.

Watch the liquid level while the pork cooks and add water when needed.

Keep the cooked pork refrigerated while the posole finishes cooking. Return it to the slow cooker for the final 15-minute simmer.

Follow the original recipe’s direction not to salt the posole until the kernels have fully opened.

About the White Corn Posole

SANTA FE SEASONS White Corn Posole is a traditional New Mexico hominy with a mild, earthy corn flavor and hearty texture.

The dried posole absorbs the flavors of the pork, garlic, onion and chipotle sauce as it slowly cooks. Allow the kernels to open fully before adding the cooked pork back to the slow cooker.

What Does HOLY CHIPOTLE! Sauce Add?

HOLY CHIPOTLE! Marinade & Cooking Sauce is a mild, tangy sauce designed for marinating, simmering and dipping.

In this recipe, two tablespoons are combined with Coca-Cola to marinate the pork before slow cooking.

What to Serve With Pork Posole

Serve the posole with fresh lime and minced garlic as suggested in the original recipe. Warm tortillas or Green Chile Cornbread can be served alongside it.
