To Make the Pork:
Add water in a large stock pot.
To the stock pot, add the pork meat, onion, garlic, bouillon, bay leaf.

Be sure to skim the fat from the top of the pot.

While the meat is cooking, soak the ancho and guajillo chiles in hot water for 30 minutes or until they are soft.
Blend the chiles, garlic cloves, onion, oregano, salt, and 1 cup of the water used to soak the chiles.
Puree mixture until smooth.
For the Pozole:

Strain the sauce into the pot.
