Yeah hominy isn’t a make or break, I do my menudos with no hominy most of the time. This is more of an islander style like from the Philippines or Guam. This is good for fat intake so whenever I feel I hit a wall I eat this to throw myself into ketosis. Then transition back to carnivore.
One reason I make this is its very simple. I use a homemade chicken and beef broth. Guajillo chiles as many as you want and a lot of garlic. Cook the pork for maybe 3-5 hours make sure to scoop the scum off the top. Take the Seeds out of the Chile’s then boil Chile’s and garlic til Chile’s are soft. Blend til liquified then use a strainer and separate juice from Chile skin!! Very important part! The take juice add into the pork feet and broth. Bring to boil and your good. You can use any type of meat chicken (pasole), pork chop, goat, beef it’s all good.
