I would give this recipe a 3 out of 5 stars. It was easy to make and the pork was tender, but the broth was a little bland.

This posole was a disaster! The pork was tough and the broth was too salty. I would not recommend this recipe.

The posole was good, but it was a lot of work to make. I'm not sure if I would make it again.

This posole was a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The pork was very tender and the broth was very flavorful.

This posole was a hit with my family! The pork was tender and flavorful, and the green chiles added just the right amount of spice. I will definitely be making this again.
