How to Make Pork Chile Verde in a Slow Cooker

Cris here.

On our recent trip to Texas, we tried to cook up some regional dishes in our Camper Kitchen in lieu of eating out a lot. There was something really fun about shopping for ingredients where we were and attempting to cook up something somewhat similar to what we might find in a local restaurant. Cooking while traveling also helped us eat low carb while away from home.

As it turns out, this Crock Pot Pork Chile Verde is our FAVORITE thing we made while in Texas. It is so flavorful and filling. The pork is so tender. The Anaheim Chile Peppers added just enough heat but it is easily cut by the sour cream and not too much for spicy wimps like me! Ha!
