HEAT oven to 350ºF. Toss pork shoulder chunks with steak sauce. Add half to large skillet; cook on medium-high heat 4 min. or until evenly browned, stirring frequently.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Food Facts
Cascabel chiles add a deep, smoky nutty flavor to stews, soups and sauces. About 1-1/2 inches in diameter, these round reddish-brown chiles have a smooth shiny, thick skin. Cascabel chiles are sold in a dry form and can be found at Hispanic grocery stores next to the dry chiles, spices and condiments.
How to Make it on the Stove Top
Toss pork shoulder chunks with steak sauce. Cook half in Dutch oven or stockpot on medium-high heat 4 min. or until evenly browned, stirring frequently. Remove from pan. Repeat with remaining pork chunks. Return to pan with ham and vegetables. Add sauce; mix lightly. Bring to boil; cover with lid. Simmer on medium-low heat 1 hour 15 min. or until pork chunks are tender.
Variation
If you don't have an ovenproof Dutch oven, cover handles of regular Dutch oven with several layers of foil before placing in oven. Or, you can bake recipe in large casserole instead.
