You’ve done the work. Now how long can you wait? Pozole is a tough cookie, but even it has limits. In the fridge (at 40°F or below), it’s perfectly happy for 3 to 4 days. But for best results overnight—say, 8 to 12 hours—you’re golden. The flavors actually get better. It’s magic.
If you’re thinking, “What about the freezer?”—yes, absolutely. Pozole freezes like a champ for up to 3 months. Just leave extra room in the container for expansion (liquid expands, you know). Thaw it overnight in the fridge, and you’ve got a nuclear-level comfort meal waiting.
