Posole season
5 places · best Oct–Mar
Hominy, pork and chile, simmered until the kernels bloom open. Flying Star’s Posole Verde is back for the season, Curious Toast just started serving the chef’s grandmother’s recipe, and La Reforma’s comes with tacos on corn tortillas made in-house.
Flying Star
Posole Verde: local hominy and big pieces of pork in a green broth with tomatillos, poblanos and jalapeño, with two warm flour tortillas for dunking.
Ask for corn tortillas to make it gluten-free.
Curious Toast
The chef’s posole comes from his grandmother, Lola Lucero Ureieta Perez, and it’s been in the family for generations.
La Reforma
Pork pozole next to al pastor tacos on corn tortillas they make in-house. Servers here will steer you to the pozole, and they’re right.
Spectators
Homemade posole at a Heights sports bar, the thing to order when it’s cold out and the game’s on.
Ponderosa Brewing
Red chile pozole shows up as a special at this Sawmill brewpub. When it’s on, get it before it’s gone.
