  • Wash all the peppers.
  • Lay the peppers on the burners over a gas flame or on the grill over high heat.
  • Turn the peppers as they char, until all surfaces are blackened and blistered.
  • Remove peppers from the fire and place into a plastic bag or in a bowl covered with plastic wrap. Allow the peppers to steam for about 30 minutes.
  • Cut pork into about 1 inch cubes. Dredge in flour.
  • Heat a sturdy pan, add oil and brown about 1/2 the pork cubes at a time.
  • Turn the pork cubes to brown all sides - adjust the heat to prevent the browned bits from burning.
  • Remove the cubes to a plate and repeat with the remaining cubes.
  • Add a little more oil and the diced onion. Saute until softened.
  • Add the garlic and saute for about 30 seconds to 1 minute more.
  • Add pork, beer, chicken broth, tomatillos, cinnamon, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper.
  • Bring just to a soft boil, recude heat to low, cover and simmer for about 2 - 3 hours.
  • While pork is simmering, remove peppers from the plastic bags.
  • Under running water, remove the blackened skins, stems and seeds from the Pasilla and Red peppers. (Leave the Jalapenos whole)
  • Slice the peppers into pieces 1/4 x 1 inch. Set aside.
  • After about 2 - 3 hours, when pork has become tender, remove cinnamon stick.
  • Add the sliced Pasillas and Red Bell peppers.
