Serves 15. Recipe courtesy of El Imperial.

Ingredients
3 pounds of pork butt
3 pounds of pork loin
2 tablespoons of salt
2 cups of hot oil
8–10 Serrano peppers 
10 Anaheim peppers 
¼ cup whole peeled garlic
1 pound of tomatillos 
1 tablespoon of cumin

To Prepare
Cut pork into chunks and place in a large pot. Sprinkle with salt, cover the pot and cook on high for 15 to 20 minutes, allowing the pork’s natural moisture to steam the meat. Once the meat has steamed, uncover the pot, add oil and continue to cook until the meat has browned. This allows flavor to develop.  Add all other ingredients and cook on low for 20 to 30 minutes.
