Ingredients
- 3 lbs Country Style Pork Ribs also called picnic style pork ribs
- 1 Onion quartered
- 8 cups chicken broth may also use water
- salt & pepper
- 2 25 ounce cans of hominy drained and rinsed
- garnishes of choice radishes, cabbage, limes, chili powder
Instructions
- Generously season pork ribs with salt and pepper and place in the slow cooker, along with the quartered onion.
- Add in just enough broth or water to cover the ribs, about 4 cups, and set to high for 4-6 hours.
- When pork ribs are fork tender and cooked through, remove from the slow cooker and set aside to cool. Shred when cool enough to handle.
- Turn off the slow cooker, and strain the broth to remove onion and any bits of pork fat floating around. Return the broth to the slow cooker and set to low for 30 minutes.
- Stir in the shredded pork and strained hominy, and cook till warmed through.
- Top with your favorite garnishes.
Notes
Make sure to use country style pork ribs and generously season the ribs with salt & pepper.
Cook for an hour if you want your hominy to be softer and less chewy.
Canned Hominy can be found in the ethnic food aisle of most major grocery stores.
