And a bowl of green chili on the side. Pork hatch green chilis an onion a couple cloves of garlic. chicken broth Take your pork cut into bite size chunks flour, salt and pepper. and start it frying in a pan in your soup pot start your chicken broth going , can be water and bouillion. Chop up at least a cup of roasted greem chilis whatever heat range you like aneheims are the mildest. btw greenchilis and jalapenos are not the same thing dont use jalepenos chop up the onion and garlic also throw it all in the pot and start it boiling. after your pork is browned well remove it from the pan and into the pot and make a roux, enough so that your chili is nice and thick and add it to the pot let it all cook together a while and enjoy. optional ingredients chili Beans, mixed vegtables, potatoes. Roasting your chilis can be done over a fire on a grill, under a broiler or evn on top of a gas burner, the idea is to roast until the outer skin turns black then you put them in a plastic bag and let them sweat until cool the peeling will then come right off, dont use them raw or unpeeled. pull off the stem and remove the seeds also and chop them up..add about a cup let it cook in then taste for heat add more if you like more heat. This recipe was told to me by an old hispanic friend may he rest in peace it comes from new mexico region where they grow alot of the chilis here Hatch green chilis are the best. it has no exact quantities you just put in what you think is a good portion , a typical butt roast will make about a gallon. Same with the garlic and onions the thickness of the stew is all up to you i have seen it made thin and watery and thick like a gravy, i prefer mine thickerer but not gravy thick. I also add such things as mixed veagtables, or chili beans, potaotes do well in it but dont tell ok thats a gringo thing lol. Next morning if there is any left you have huevos rancheros. Two nice fried eggs smothered in the green chili with a tortilla and sour cream. the bigest thing to know about mexican cooking is that it is highly adaptable to ingredients, easy to make and always delicious. Its truely home cooking at its finest.

western style holster
chuck123wapati posted a topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
A customer wanted a western style holster for his 22 six shooter that had a cant to it and rode higher than a regular drop type holster so here is my try at it not much room on this little thing for a belt loop especially with a cant . He also wanted his old holster modified to fit it because he has two. It was for a saa and was just to large everywhere so i took an inch off the end and about 3/8 along the original stitch edge, shortened the belt loop an inch so it rides higher and re finished the edges and gave it some saddle soap lol. -
