  • Carefully remove the tough skin from the pork and discard. Salt & Pepper the roast.
  • Remove tomatillos from husk and wash. Depending on the size, cut into quarters or eighths (about 1 inch pieces).
  • Peel and dice onions and mince the garlic.
  • In a heavy dutch-oven, brown pork on all sides in olive oil.
  • Add the tomatillos, onions and garlic with some salt.
  • Sauté until softened
  • Add beer, broth, beans, cumin, cinnamon and oregano
  • Bring to a boil, reduce to simmer and cover. Cook for about 2-3 hours, turning pork each hour
  • Pork should be starting to fall apart. Remove stem, seeds and membranes from anaheim chilis and slice into strips about 1/4 - 1/2 inch wide
  • Add to pot and cook an additional hour
  • Remove pork to a platter to cool
  • Increase heat to a low boil and continue cooking the sauce allowing it to reduce and become slightly thickened.
  • When meat is cooled enough to handle, remove from the bones discarding any fat or sinew and shred meat. Return meat to sauce. Taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Add jalapeno and cook until softened, 15-30 minutes.
  • Add orange zest and cilantro and turn off heat.
  • Let stand until ready to serve.

    This has a stew-like consistency and can be served with saffron rice and/or tortillas.
