Bean And Bacon Soup With Pozole Recipe

Glen makes his Bean And Bacon Soup With Pozole... now this is a crazy simple soup recipe 'hack' that borrows from a lot of different cuisines, and yet isn't really any of them. It has hints of a Mexican posole / pozole - but we know that it isn't. What it is: easy and tasty!
Ingredients:
200g bacon, diced
1 large onion, diced
10 mL (2 tsp) ground cumin
1-2 cloves garlic, crushed
10 mL (2 tsp) oregano
1-2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
1 can (796 mL / 28 oz) diced tomatoes
3 cans (540 mL / 19 oz) beans, drained and rinsed
1 can (796 mL / 28 oz) white hominy, drained and rinsed
2L (8 cups) pork stock or chicken stock


Method:
In a large pot render out the bacon, and cook just until starting to crisp.
Add in the diced onion and sweat until softened.
Add in the cumin, crushed garlic, oregano, and chipotle; stir and cook briefly.
Add in the tomatoes, and cook while stirring 2-3 minutes.
Add in the beans, hominy, and stock.
Cook on low heat at a simmer, and stir occasionally for 30-40 minutes.
