By á-2183

I thought this was really good. I used white rice to serve it over instead of tortillas since I didn't have any.

5. Add the beer and the chicken stock and bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Add the rest of cilantro (saving some for garnish). Stir in the tomatillo mixture and let simmer until the pork is tender and the mixture has reduced a bit, about an hour and a half.
