Chili Verde

A
few years ago my husband and I went to a chili cook-off at our church.
We tried all of the different chili recipes but there was one that both
of us couldn’t get enough of. It was simply amazing. The pork was
perfectly tender and the taste was outstanding. I finally got up the
nerve to ask for the recipe and permission to share it here on
FavFamilyRecipes. I am so excited to share it with all of you. It is
definitely an award-winning recipe! Thanks Diana for sharing with us!*Keep in mind this is a little spicy. Feel free to cool it down with cheese and sour cream.
