This is a Tradition New Mexican recipe that I got from a contributor to Chowhound. I first served it over rice, with tortillas on the side, then made burritos with the leftovers. I used a lot of hot chile pepper, but you can adjust the heat to your liking.

I learned to make this spicy red chile dish by experimenting in my kitchen after enjoying it at a friend's place. It takes a while to make, but it is well worth it. Serve hot with tortillas, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, salsa and sour cream. This also works well with a pork roast.

Tips:

  • Trim any excess fat from the pork shoulder before cooking. This will help to reduce the amount of grease in the dish.
  • Use a variety of chiles in the adobada sauce. This will give the dish a complex and flavorful taste.
  • Be sure to brown the pork shoulder before adding it to the slow cooker. This will help to develop the flavor of the meat.
  • Cook the pork shoulder on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours. The longer you cook it, the more tender it will be.
  • Serve the carne adovada with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, and tortillas.
