12 servings

Ingredients

1 1/2 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander

1 tablespoon crushed red chile peppers

4 tablespoons pure red chile powder

1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon honey

2 tablespoons sherry vinegar

1 cup chicken stock, as needed

4 pounds pork loin, slice thin

Directions

Place everything except the stock and the pork in a blender or processor and puree. Add stock as needed to make a thick sauce. Marinate the pork at least 24 hours, or up to 48 hours (refrigerated). Simmer in a large saucepan for 2 to 8 hours, or until pork is tender. Note: You can also use beef (marinate the same time as the pork), or chicken (marinate 8 hours or so). Eat plain, or make burritos, etc.
