tamale filling

This pork with Red Chili Sauce is my favorite filling for tamales, burritos, tacos and more. It&#x27;s made with a pork roast, spices, and a homemade red chili sauce.

Shredded Pork with Red Chili Sauce

pork loin (shoulder

onion (, chopped)

bay leaves

garlic

oregano leaves

cumin

chili powder

salt

black pepper

california chile pods

pork broth

onion powder

Tablespoon oil ((vegetable or canola oil))

Tablespoon all-purpose flour

Add pork, onion, bay leaf, garlic, oregano, cumin and salt and pepper to slow cooker.  Cover the pork with water and cook on LOW for 8 hours or overnight.

Drain the pork, reserving the broth. Shred the meat.

For the pork:

Remove the stems and seeds from the dried chiles while rinsing them under cold water. Place chiles in a saucepan with 2 cups of broth from the cooked pork. Simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes, then remove from heat. 

Transfer the chiles and broth to a blender. Add oregano, cumin, chili powder, onion powder, garlic and blend until smooth. Set aside.

In the same saucepan you used to cook the chiles, add oil and cook over medium heat. Add flour and salt and stir for 1 minute.

Strain the chili sauce from the blender and add it to the saucepan. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, then add the sauce to the shredded pork.
