Chorizo Mexicano

1.5 pounds lean boneless pork shoulder..
8 ounces pork fat
12 medium dried ancho chiles...
2 bay leaves
1.5 tsp cinnamon, pref fresh ground Mexican canela
1/8 tsp cloves, pref fresh ground
1 tsp dried Mexican oregano
Thyme and marjoram (1 T fresh or 1 tsp dried)

I was surprised by there being no garlic though! It seems to need some...
