I didn’t know what to expect of this dish, but I love tomatillos, so I had to try it! First, I used 2 lbs of pork roast, what I had on hand. Store didn’t have canned tomatillos, so I used the Salsa Verde. Based on other reviews I used a 12oz bottle of beer in place of the water and also added two cans of white beans so I could eat it as a stew/soup. I let it cook on low for 8 hours, then shredded the pork and put back in the crockpot for about an hour. Turned out fantastic! I like my dishes spicy, so next time I’ll add some hot sauce or crushed red pepper, the japalenos didn’t make it spicy enough for my taste. Turned out great, can't wait to eat the leftovers tonight!

Delicious. My only change was to use 1 one pound pork tenderloins. This reduced the cooking time to 4 hours.

Do not add any additional salt. I added salt and I feel that it made mine too salty. I took this to a Cinco de Mayo party and people loved it. I did what others said and used 2 jars of Pace Salsa Verde- tomotillo salsa in place of the tomotillas. It was so simple and easy. I recieved so many compliments all night long. Mine was the first dish to be completely finished out of 30.

I also used the tomatillo salsa verde with 2 cans of chicken broth. Then, I made a gravy base to add it to. It came out much thicker more like guisado. We were all surprised at how tasty the pork was! Great recipe!

I substituted a jar of salsa verde and some chopped fresh tomatillos for the canned ones, because I could not get the cans. We liked this very much, though it was a bit watery when it was fresh; however, it thickened up quite a bit in the fridge.

Soooo good...followed advice of others and just got the verde sauce as it had the tomatillos in there with the garlic etc...I did add minced garlic on top of that also and maybe not as much liquid as mentioned. Did add more chicken broth than water. But it was sooo good. Next time, I will add some carrots, radishes and some other veggies to make it more of a soup. We had it rolled in tortillas, like an enchilada and it was excellent. This dish gets even better over the following days. Thanks for sharing.

I love Guisado and have been looking for a good / great recipe for some time. I'M STILL LOOKING FOR A GOOD RECIPE!!! This was a real disappointment - especially after the great reviews. I followed several suggestions: salsa verde, reduced water / beer, added jalapenos .... The consistency was good, color was good, but lifeless and bland. Still looking for a good recipe for guisado.

I'm going to give this 4 stars, since it was good, but I changed it around a little. I couldn't find canned tomatillos, so I used salsa verde and only one jalapeno (it was pretty fiery). With that, it tasted great! However, when I went to put the recipe in my "permanent collection", I turned to my fiance and said, ". I was suppposed to put a quart of water in this thing!" So...with the other reviews saying to use chicken broth instead of water, I say use salsa verde and no water (or broth). It was still stew-like and not bland at all.

I substituted the tomatillos for a jar of salsa verde and a bit extra normal salsa, I wasn't sure what this was going to taste like but I was really surprised by how delicious this was... i cooked on the stove for two hours, rather than in the slow cooker.

This is really good! I took the advice from other reviewers and I replaced the tomatillos w/ salsa Verde and I used 1/2 can of broth instead of water. I also replaced the seasonings with Adobo Seasoning from penzeys. This is a keeper in my house!

Loved this! Next time I'll kick up the spice a little bit more, but this was very tasty. Used a 3lb pork loin- cooked whole. Couldn't find tomatillo's (in AZ- I know it's weird right?) so I used a 16 oz jar of Salsa Verde as suggested by others. Also used 12oz beer instead of water (also another helpful suggestion :-) My fiance liked this so much he requested I make it on a regular basis.

Excellent flavor! I made it with a whole pork tenderloin cubed and browned because that's what I had on hand. Next time I would double the amount of meat I use because it is turning out quite brothy. I did adjust the spices to my prefered level of heat and did throw in a packet of Goya Sazon con culantrro y achiote. Instead of water as the recipe calls for, or the chicken broth others suggest, I used a can of vegetable broth... lots of flavor, but I prefer it with pork because the taste is more "neutral". I'll be serving over a nice garlicky white rice pilaf dish and refritos on the side.... Thanks for the recipe!

Yum! I was only able to find one can of tomatillos so I used some salsa verde with it. Soooo good!! Next time I'll have to try adding beer for the liquid as another reviewer suggested.

Delish! Easy to make, cheap, and sooo good! Like some others suggested, I substituted a large jar of green salsa for the tomatillos and jalepenos. I also used broth, not water, and added 4 diced red potatoes. It was soooo good! Delicious served over rice with sour cream and jack cheese! We're planning to use the leftovers as enchilada filling/ sauce. Thank you for a great, easy, fast, super great recipe!

This was pretty good. I also added a couple of potatoes to make it more "stewy". I added several fresh jalapenos, I'll watch that next time as it made it really spicy. Seved it with mexican corn bread. Havent' decided if I'll make it again. It is very different, not in a bad way, but still very different. Thanks for the post.
