Once I tasted it last night, I wasn't very happy with it. It was hotter than usual, with less depth of flavor. The recipe says to use a bottle of stout, which I didn't; I used Lagunitas Brewing Co's Brown Shugga Ale instead. I'll go back to stout in the future. Also, in the past I've made this with beef; I expected pork to be better but I'm not sure.

Make sure you use plenty of the adobo sauce that comes along with the chipotles. That stuff is awesome and not too hot.
