My favorite use is for pork chile verde. Make the following sauce, and when your butt is done smoking, and/or crockpotting, pull it or chunk it up, slather it in this sauce, and serve with tortillas and pico de gallo. If you decide to crock pot it, just use the sauce in the crock pot while the pork cooks.
10 tomatillos, roasted
4 cloves garlic roasted
one onion diced
juice of two limes
10 green chilis roasted and peeled (what type you use will determine the heat). Anaheim or poblanl for mild, or ancho or new mexico for more heat.
one jalapeno, roasted
Salt, pepper, cumin to taste
Throw all the ingredients into a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour into the crockpot with your butt. Cook until you can pull the bone out of the butt. pull the meat and mix with the sauce. Delicious!
