Award Winning Pork Chili Verde

[BBCUE BUTWEET]

I made this up for a chili cook-off a couple months ago. It won 1st place with 19 votes out of forty. The second place had 6 votes.
This is rated for women and children, so it's pretty low on the heat scale. Kick it up with Cayenne powder or some fresh chipotle, if you feel the need to burn!

Cool! My wife always wanted me to make a green chili, so when I had some pork left over from making sausage, I decided to give it a shot. I just started throwing things in. I did my best to document everything and have since made it from this recipe. It turned out just as good. Now I'm a green chili fan!
