2tablespoonsBacon drippings
2largesOnions-fine chop
6largesTomatoes-chop

Directions

: Flour the pork and brown it in the drippings in a skillet.

Remove pork to a large stew pot, 3 to 5 quart size. Add onions to drippings in the skillet and cook until the onion is translucent.

: Add the onions to the pork. Cut the chiles into 1 inch slices; add to the meat and onions in the pot.

: Add the remaining ingredients and cook over medium heat for about 1 hour, until the stew is slightly thickened.

: If you prefer the all day method, follow the same directions except put the ingredients in a crock pot. Cook on low for 10-12 hoursor high for 5 hours.

: I like using fresh jalepenos. Depending on where the chiles are from you can have a rather firey brew!!! Make sure you have plenty of flour tortillas handy, you will not want to miss one tasty drop.
