My new can doesn't have the recipe, but I found this. The recipe
purports to be the Teasdale one.

So here's what I do. Finding split pigs feet has always been hit or
miss, so that's why I use spare rib broth. I do things that remove my
posole from the realm of authenticity.
INGREDIENTS:
Approximately 1# pork stew meat (I cut into approx 1/2" chunks)
1 30 oz can Teasdale hominy (white or gold, doesn't matter)
1 10 oz can Las Palmas red enchilada sauce (any red would probably do)
1/2 head of medium cabbage coarse chopped, rustic style.
The broth from those spareribs you made (probably a 1/2 to a full cup)
1 7 oz can of diced green chiles (mild, medium or hot, your choice)
1 lemon
cornstarch in water to thicken to your desire (not authentic)
Your favorite corn chips on the side
METHOD:
Fill a 3 qt pot halfway with water. A bigger pot would be OK too.
Throw in the pork chunks and bring to a boil. Skim off the pork scum and
reduce the heat to a simmer.
Pour in the enchilada sauce, pork broth and hominy and let simmer for
three or more hours with the lid on. Add water as necessary to keep
things soupy. Toward the end, add the chiles.
Dump in the chunked cabbage and simmer for a half-hour or until you
get it the way "you" like it. At this point, a 3 qt pot should be just
short of plumb full. If not add a little water.
Now taste the dish and add salt if needed. You probably won't. Thicken
the shebang with a cornstarch slurry, squeeze in the lemon juice from
the whole lemon, and you're ready to eat.
Here's a 3 qt potful. I've probably posted the pic before.
