8 lbs. Country Style Pork Shoulder Blade, salted 
6 Dried Pasilla Chiles  
8 cups Sliced White Onions  
1 cup Dried Apricot , sliced 
1 cup Apple Cider

DIRECTIONS

1.) Remove excess fat from the pork. Cut into 2” pieces and place in a roasting pan. Season with salt. Wipe the chiles clean with a damp cloth. Remove stems and seeds and cut into strips. Toss the chile strips, onions and apricots with the pork. Combine the next 6 ingredients in a small mixing bowl and stir until sugar dissolves. Pour mixture over the pork. Cover and marinate in refrigeration overnight.

2.) Remove from refrigeration and bake at 325º F for 2 ½ hours, covered with foil.

3.) Fill fryer basket with room temperature unfried chips. Submerge in oil heated to 350-360ºF. With long handled tongs, gently poke at the chips to submerge to ensure even frying. Remove from oil, allow to drain for a few seconds. Transfer to a paper lined surface and season with salt while chips are still hot. Set aside.

4.) Serve pork with Yellow Corn Chips and Apple Apricot Salsa. Can be served Nacho style or as individual appetizer style servings.
