Recipe View 0 mins Serve hot with your favorite pozole toppings such as shredded cabbage, lime wedges, diced avocado, chopped onion, extra cilantro, and warm tortillas or tortilla chips.

For a richer flavor, consider searing the pork in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
Feel free to adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to control the spiciness of the pozole. You can also use a milder enchilada sauce if you prefer less heat.
If you like a thicker pozole, you can mash some of the hominy with a fork before adding it to the slow cooker.
Leftover pozole can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will continue to develop overnight.

    The cayenne pepper really kicks it up a notch. Next time I'll use a little less, but overall a fantastic recipe.
