INGREDIENTS
Vegetables
- 🍈 4 fresh tomatillos - husked, peeled, and halved
- 3 Anaheim chile peppers - seeded and halved
- 🧅 1 medium onion, halved
- 1 green bell pepper, seeded and halved lengthwise
Cooking Oil
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Meat
- 1 ½ pounds pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch chunks
Beverage
- ½ (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle lager-style beer
Vegetables
- 🍅 2 tomatoes, chopped
- 🧄 4 cloves garlic, chopped
Herbs
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Spices & Seasonings
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder

STEPS
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Arrange the halved tomatillos, Anaheim chiles, onion, and bell pepper on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
Roast vegetables in the preheated oven until they show brown spots, about 1800 seconds (30 minutes). Allow them to cool, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Add pork shoulder and cook until browned, seasoning with salt and pepper, about 720 seconds (12 minutes).
Transfer pork to a slow cooker. Add roasted vegetables, beer, tomatoes, garlic, oregano, parsley, cumin, chili powder, and bouillon cube. Cover and cook on low for 14400 to 21600 seconds (4 to 6 hours) until pork is tender.
About 1800 seconds (30 minutes) before serving, mix 1 tablespoon of chili liquid into the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually incorporate more chili liquid a tablespoon at a time, then stir the cream cheese mixture into the chili.
