Add the onion, celery and garlic, reduce heat and saute for just a few minutes to soften the onion.Pour the meat, onion mixture,tomatoes, broth, spices and posole into your crockpot. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.When the pork is tender and the stew is about "done", break up the cream cheese into little bits and add to the pot along with the pepper jelly.
