3 cups water

Remove the meat to a 5-quart Dutch oven. Add the onions and garlic to the skillet and saut? until translucent. Add these to the pork in the pot. Stir in the remaining ingredients, bring pot to a boil, and keep stirring every 2 to 3 minutes. When boiling, lower heat to low and simmer for 45 minutes.
Taste, adjust seasonings per personal taste, and cook for 30 minutes more.
Would you like me to give you a formula for…success Its quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure… You
e thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn at all… You can be discouraged by failure–or you can learn from it. So go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because, remember thats where youll find success. On the far side. — Thomas John Watson, Sr.
