Yield: 1.5 gallons

Amount	Ingredients
2 tsp	Oil, olive
10 lbs	Pork, shoulder, boneless, 2" chunks
2 cups	Onions, white, large dice
2 cups	Carrots, peeled, large dice, 2"
2 cups	Pepper, bell, green

PREPARATION

1. In a large preheated rondo or stockpot, add the oil and pork evenly spaced in the hot pan.

2. Brown the pork for 5-10 minutes until each piece and side is deeply golden brown.

3. Brown in batches if the pan's bottom surface is not large enough for all the meat.

4. Once the meat is brown, lower the heat to medium-low.

5. Add the aromatic vegetables and cook until the onions are translucent, making sure to use the spoon to scape up the flavorful brown bits off the pan.

6. Add the beef birria broth, beer, and ancho concentrate, stirring until the concentrate melts. Cover and lower heat to low or put into a slow and low oven at 300°F.

7. Cook the stew for 45 to 60 minutes until the pork is tender. Add the cilantro and serve.
