I love my green chili recipe, and it just won 1st place at my work’s 10th annual chili cookoff, judged by the local fire dept. Just thought I’d share.
Love Tank Green Chili
Ingredients:
2 pounds pork, diced & trimmed of fat
1-2 cup white or yellow onion, chopped

1 tablespoon green chili powder (I get green chili powder from Chimayo, NM every year)
1 teaspoon celery salt
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon cumin (I use crushed Indian cumin seed)
16oz green enchilada sauce
½ bottle of fresh microbrew/homebrew beer (light lager, pilsner, helles, maibock, etc)
¼ - ½ cup freshly chopped cilantro
1-3 freshly chopped jalapeños
32oz fire roasted green chili, chopped (preferably fresh, but canned works fine)
jalapeño hot sauce as needed
