  2. Shred or chop the as needed pork or beef stewing meat or roast.
  3. Take the reserved broth and stir in the as needed chili powder and as needed spices.
  4. Add the shredded or chopped meat back into the spiced broth.
  5. Simmer and keep cooking until the mixture reaches your desired consistency, ensuring you do not add flour if it seems too thin.
