Preparation

Step 1

In 6-qt. slow cooker, combine the chicken broth, onion, garlic, chiles, adobo sauce and cumin. Add the beans and pork; cooked, covered until beans are tender and pork easily pulls apart, 8 hours on low or 6 hours on high. Transfer pork to a bowl and, using a fork, break into large pieces. Put 1/2 of the soup in a blender along with some cornstarch for thickening, puree and put back into the slow cooker. Stir the pork back into the soup and season with salt. Serve with sour cream and salsa.
