MEXICAN SHREDDED PORK
If you have ever been to a taco shop or a Mexican restaurants and wondered how they make the meat for their dishes then here it is. Once you make the meat, you can store it for the week in your refrigerator and use it whenever you want to throw together a quick taco or burrito, and even as stuffing for "Enchiladas Fantastico."

Steps:
- In a large skillet place corn oil and bring to high heat (careful!). Sear pork butt on all sides. Should be browned on all sides.
- Let pork butt rest on cutting board until cool enough to handle. Rub cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper on all sides of pork.
- In large cast iron or equivalent make dutch oven style pan, place chicken stock. Add pork butt.
- Peel and slice into disk onion. Place onion on top of pork.
- Open can of poblanos and remove peppers, save sauce. Place poblanos on onions.
- Cover pan and set burner to lowest setting (May also be done in oven) allow to slow cook.
- Periodically it may be necessary to remove excess fluid from pan as meat cooks down.
- After approx 4 hours check to see if meat falls apart when prodded with fork. (Don't worry if it doesn't. I was told 4 hours of cooking time, my first time it took closer to eight before it flaked apart with a fork) If it doesn't flake apart, continue to cook covered and check each hour.
- When meat falls apart, remove any bones. Drain off liquid. Stir in poblano sauce left from can.
- You may use immediately for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, flautas, or any other Mexican dish requiring shredded pork.
- I recommend adding a dash of rock salt. Keep refrigerated until needed. This meat easily reheats for that quick taco fix.
- Note: EXPERIMENT! I substitute Beer for the chicken stock. Add a chunk of fatty beef that has been seered on all sides to the pot, and WOW! I also add a few fresh Jalepenos cut in half with the tops removed. See what works for you.

SPICY PORK TOSTADAS
I serve these flavorful tostadas as a casual meal for family or friends. My husband and I love the salsa topping so much that I often double that part of the recipe so we have some left over to serve with chicken, on burgers or as a dip. -Kathy Smith, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Steps:
- Bring pork, quartered onion, smashed garlic, thyme, 1 tsp salt and 6 cups water to simmer in large saucepan over medium-high heat, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface. Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover and cook until pork is tender, 75-90 minutes. Drain pork, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid. Discard onion, garlic and thyme. Return pork to saucepan and using potato masher, mash until shredded into rough 1/2" pieces. Set aside.
- Heat olive oil in 12" nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add shredded pork, chopped onion and oregano; cook, stirring often until pork is well browned and crisp, 7-10 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Stir in tomato sauce, chipotle powder, reserved pork cooking liquid and bay leaves; simmer until almost all liquid has evaporated, 5-7 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaves and season to taste with salt.
- To fry tostadas, heat vegetable oil in 8" heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat to 350 degrees. Using fork, poke center of each tortilla 3-4 times (to prevent puffing and allow for even cooking). Fry 1 at a time, holding tortilla down to keep it submerged. Drain on paper towel lined plate and season with salt to taste.
- Spoon small amount of shredded pork onto center of each tostada and serve with garnishes.

Steps:
- Take each pork chop and place it between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound it out with the flat side of a meat hammer to about 1/4 inch in thickness. Continue with each chop.
- Dredge the flattened chops in corn meal. Heat oil in 12 inch sauté pan and sear on both sides, approximately 2 to 3 minutes each side. Remember your chop is very thin and will only take a short time to cook. Place on a plate until all the pieces are done.
- Top the pork "tortilla" with refried beans, a little chili and some cheddar cheese and place in an oven that has been preheated to 350°F just until the cheese melts and the chili and beans are heated through, approximately 8 to 10 minutes.
- Remove to warm plates. Have all the toppings ready and allow your guests to garnish their "tostada" as they wish.
