Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Brown cubed pork - stirring to cook all cubes - (you can add more coals to bottom to quickly brown)
  2. When browned, add onion, celery, green onion, bell pepper, and garlic. - remove extra coals from bottom - use 6 on the bottom
  3. Stir and cook about 10 minutes, until veggies are soft.
  4. Push mixture to one side of the oven (or remove).
  5. Add 2 tablespoons oil to pan juices.
  6. Stir flour to make roux - stir until flour mixture is light tan.
  7. Add 4 cups of water including juice from chilis to make a smooth gravy, stirring in the meat mixture. If you use the juice from the tomatillos subtract that amount of water.
  8. Bring to a boil and stir until mixture thickens. If mixture is too thick, add more water in small increments.
  9. Add tomatillos and green chili.
  10. Add salt to taste.
  11. Simmer for at least 30 minutes. (I have cooked this up to 3 hours on a low heat and it melts in your mouth)
  12. If it is too watery add arrowroot or cornstarch to thicken.
