Chop it up into small cubes, throw it into a pot with a can of hominy,
add
some red enchilada sauce, onions, oregano, and cilantro, and you have a
Mexican pork stew called "pozole" or "posole" that is traditionally
eaten around Christmas or New Years Day.

Simmer it for about 20 to 30 minutes to combine the flavors.

I had some in a local restaurant (the local population is about 2/3rds
Mexican and the owner made it specially for me, as it wasn't even
Sunday) and they gave me a bowl of shredded cabbage to put on top of
the stew. I thought that was strange, as Mexican cuisine doesn't seem
to use cabbage very often. They traditionally use something else on
top, but I don't remember what it was.
