Ingredients
- 3 lbs pork shoulder or butt roast, cubed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large white onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 oz. tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 can (28 oz.) diced tomatoes
- 1 quart beef broth
- 1 can (15 oz.) white beans

Instructions
Step 1
In a large heavy pot, add olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the cubed pork butt (1-2 inch cubes) and brown well on all sides, cooking for 8-10 minutes total.
Step 2
Add onion and garlic to the pot along with the pork. Add tomato paste and spices as well. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly until veggies soften.
Step 3
Add diced tomatoes, brown sugar and beef broth to pot. Bring to a simmer and scrape up any bits stuck to the pan.
Step 4
Cover pot and turn heat down to low. Simmer pork until it’s very tender, 75-90 minutes. Stir occasionally.
Step 5
Remove pork and shred. Add pork back to soup along with beans. Season soup with salt and pepper.
Step 6
Serve pork garnished with parsley or other toppings.
