Easy Slow Cooker Pork Posole is a traditional Mexican Soup, perfect for family gatherings. It is hearty and flavorful and an easy one-dish meal.
Growing up every year at Christmas time, my father would make menudo for our family gatherings. He still does make it for my immediate family but to a smaller degree.
I remember as a kid watching my dad get everything together, cutting, soaking, and finally cooking everything to get that one dish ready for our family.
While I could eat it year-round, I have friends and family members who are not fans of the dish. It is an acquired taste but it is something I grew up on so I have always enjoyed it on special occasions.

This year I decided to make some pork posole for friends and family this Christmas season to get them introduced to the similarities of menudo.
Made in the slow cooker with Knorr® Chicken Flavor Bouillon and La Morena® Sliced Jalapenos, both of which can be found in the Hispanic aisle at Walmart, this Pork Posole island the perfect dish for a family gathering.
Using the slow cooker makes it a simple dish yet with the addition of the flavors of Knorr and La Morena ingredients, which are always in my pantry, makes it seem like you spent hours slaving over a stove. The variety of ingredients offered from La Morena® and Knorr® are quality and flavor you can count on Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow.

I’m hoping this easy Pork Posole will become a tradition at our family gathering along with our beloved menudo.
