hour. Drain beans and discard  liquid.

In a crock pot/slow cooker, combine water, onion, chilies,  garlic, 
chili powder, salt, cumin and oregano. Add roast and  beans.

heat setting and cook 6 hours longer or until pork is very  tender.

Remove roast and shred with a fork. Drain beans, reserving  cooking 
liquid in a saucepan.

Combine beans and meat; set aside. Skim  and discard fat from cooking
