Smokin' Chipotle Pork Stew

This smokin’ chipotle pork stew is a deeply savoury dish that brings a touch of Mexican-inspired heat to your kitchen. By slow-cooking boneless pork shoulder with spicy chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, the meat becomes exceptionally tender while absorbing the rich, smoky flavours of the sauce. It is a satisfying and aromatic meal that fills the home with a wonderful scent, making it an ideal choice for a cosy autumn or winter evening.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this stew focuses on high-quality protein and natural aromatics rather than sugary glazes. The use of beer adds a sophisticated depth to the liquid base without the need for thickeners. Serve this wholesome dish with a side of steamed greens or a small portion of brown rice for a balanced, nutritious dinner that the whole family will enjoy.

Ingredients for Smokin' Chipotle Pork Stew

  • 2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil

  • 675g boneless pork shoulder, cut into one-inch cubes

  • 2 medium onions, diced

  • 1 (350g) bottle or can beer

  • 5 to 7 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce plus 3 tablespoons adobo sauce

  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin, or to taste

  • Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

How to make Smokin' Chipotle Pork Stew

  1. Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until very hot, about two minutes. Add the oil. Add the pork and cook, in batches if necessary, until browned on all sides. Transfer the pork to a bowl and set aside.

  2. Reduce the heat to low. Add the onions, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden and slightly browned around the edges, about 10 minutes. Add the reserved pork, beer, chipotles, adobo sauce, cumin, salt, and pepper; stir until combined. Simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until the pork is fork-tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
