How to Make Beer Braised Pork And Black Bean Soup

  1. In a large bowl, combine 12 ounces of beer, 3 cups of water, 2-3 dried ancho chilies (stems removed and roughly chopped), 2 tablespoons of adobo sauce from canned chipotles in adobo, 1 tablespoon of ground cumin, 1 medium yellow onion (chopped), 2 (15-ounce) cans of black beans (rinsed and drained), 2 pounds boneless pork shoulder (cut into 1-inch cubes), and 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt.
  2. Transfer the mixture to a slow cooker. Set the slow cooker to high and cook, covered, for 4 hours, or until the beans are tender and the pork is easily shredded.
  3. Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Discard the ancho chilies.
  4. Stir the shredded pork back into the soup.
  5. Divide the soup among individual bowls and top with desired amount of sour cream, salsa, and chopped cilantro.
