How to Make Pork Chile Verde in a Slow Cooker

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!

    You knocked thus one out if the park! Pork Chile Verde has just the right amount of heat, and I love the combination of spices. Loved serving it in a bowl with trimmings. Made homemade pico di Gallo too. Thank you!

    Very good. My husband chowed it down and said he could keep eating it until he was sick itโ€™s that good. Definitely a keeper

    New to your site as of yesterday, 1/24/18. I love this recipe! Think I will make it for use in Enchiladas, adding some grated Monterey Jack cheese, and/or Cotija Cheese, crumbled and of course, chopped fresh Cilantro for garnish.
    Can I substitute Mexican Crema for the sour cream or would it be too thin/loose??
