Chili Verde!! A dish I didn’t know I needed in my life, but sure am glad my husband wanted to make it!

It’s funny, I had never had this until a couple year ago, when my husband got an Instant Pot for Christmas, and found a recipe for Chili Verde. Come to find out my father-in-law loves this dish, and orders it everywhere! Who knew!

This is a delicious recipe, and a beautiful green dish that burst with flavors and little heat depending on your jalapeños.

We typically serve it over rice, but recently decided to use the leftovers and make oven tacos… best decision EVER!! Super delicious!

Comment below if you make this recipe, and don’t forget to rate it! =)

Chili Verde | Instant Pot

A dish I didn't know I needed in my life. Tons of flavors from the roasted tomatillos and chili's.

Prep Time: 25 minutes minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes minutes
Course: Main Course
Cuisine: Mexican
Keyword: anaheim, chili verde, chilis, Dinner, foodie, instantpot, jalapeño, party food, peppers, tomatillo
Servings: 6

Equipment

  • Instant Pot
  • rimmed cookie sheet
  • BBQ
  • blender

Ingredients

  • 2 Anaheim chili's
  • 2 medium to large jalapeño
  • 15-22 tomatillos depending on size
  • 2 heads of garlic
  • 1 bunch cilantro
  • 2 cups broth any kind
  • 5 lbs pork sholder/pork butt – trimmed and into 3 inch chunks
  • salt and pepper
  • olive oil

Instructions

  • Turn on your BBQ to meduim high heat. Depending on how many burners you have, I turn on the outer ones and place the cookie sheet in the middle. Direct heat might make your cookie sheet warp, but it will go back once it cools.
    Line cookie sheet with heavy duty aluminum foil. (I find heavy duty is better for this kind of thing, but regular works also)
    Drizzle foil with olive oil.
    Wash peppers, remove the outer husk of the tomatillos and wash. Slice peppers and tomatillos in half and place flesh side down, along with garlic bulbs.
  • BBQ should be about 350° F
    Plave cookie sheet on BBQ and roast until skins are charred and blistered. Rotate sheet halfway through if necessary. Around 20-30 minutes.
  • While peppers are cooking, trim off most of the fat, (leave some fat for flavor) and cut into 3 inch chunks.
  • Season your meat chunks with salt and pepper.
  • Brown your meat on all sides. High heat to get a nice quick sear.
    *You can use the sauté setting on your instantpot or use a separate skillet.
    Leave meat in Instantpot or set aside while we tend to tomatillo mixture.
  • Once peppers, tomatillos and garlic are charred, remove from BBQ.
    Let cool slightly and press garlic out of husks.
    In a blender, add the cilantro, peppers (remove the stems if you haven't already) tomatillos, garlic and broth. Blend til smooth.
  • Instantpot:
    Put in meat and blender mixture, give it a little stir. Put on lid, lock and turn on instantpot. Cook for 45 minutes.
  • Once time is up and all ready to open, give a good stir and it's ready to serve.
  • We serve ours over rice with a flour tortilla and garnigh with chopped cilantro.
    Enjoy ~Jeanne

Nothing says Summertime BBQ like smoked ribs! I Nothing says Summertime BBQ like smoked ribs! 

I like my ribs to fall of the bone. So smoking them for a few hours, then wrapping them up for a few more seems to do the trick. Man, these were delicious!! 

Plus seasoning them with our buddies @wood.iron.works_bydean mixture, always ends in perfection! 

I was intimidated to do these for some reason, (probably because my hubby always kills it with the smoking and BBQing) but these were super easy and simple. 

What’s your favorite thing to smoke?

These two photos capture the reality of my life ri These two photos capture the reality of my life right now. 

I started off my week with absolutely nothing on my calendar. No day, dates, nothing. As if it’s summertime and I don’t have anything to do! 

When the reality is, I’ve been so busy with life. 18th birthday celebrations, engagement celebrations, graduation celebrations, end of school year celebrations, a memorial for the loss of a friend, and holidays. With all that going on, who has time to update their life?! 😅 It’s been a long 2 months. 

Whelp, I’ve updated my life, put some stuff on the calendar (for this week), and wouldn’t you know it… I have more celebrations to tend to!! 

Pshh..Responsibility shmonsibility! 

And yes, I still love bullet journaling!
