Ingredients
- 2 pounds pork, diced to 1/2-to-3/4-inch cubes

Instructions
- In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, sauté the pork, onions and garlic until pork is fully cooked. Combine tomatoes and jalapeños in blender or food processor until smooth. Add water, blended tomato and jalapeño mixture, cumin, salt and diced green chiles to the pot. Cover and bring to a boil over medium-high heat until temperature increases to between 165 F and 180 F. Add the roux to thicken. Turn down the heat to simmer, and stir often until desired consistency is reached (about 10-15 minutes).
